Syntax
FT.DROPINDEX index 
  [DD]
Available in:
Redis Stack / Search 2.0.0
Time complexity:
O(1) or O(N) if documents are deleted, where N is the number of keys in the keyspace

Delete an index

Examples

Required arguments

index

is full-text index name. You must first create the index using FT.CREATE.

Optional arguments

DD

drop operation that, if set, deletes the actual document hashes.

By default, FT.DROPINDEX does not delete the documents associated with the index. Adding the DD option deletes the documents as well. If an index creation is still running (FT.CREATE is running asynchronously), only the document hashes that have already been indexed are deleted. The document hashes left to be indexed remain in the database. To check the completion of the indexing, use FT.INFO.

Return

FT.DROPINDEX returns a simple string reply OK if executed correctly, or an error reply otherwise.

Examples

Delete an index
127.0.0.1:6379> FT.DROPINDEX idx DD
OK
