Override the REPLACE WHERE predicate for a single refresh

UpdateJul 22, 2026VerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026

You can now override a standalone streaming table's defined REPLACE WHERE predicate for a single refresh by adding a WHERE clause to the REFRESH STREAMING TABLE command. The override applies only to that refresh and doesn't change the table definition, which is useful for one-time backfills and corrections.
