48.3. Streaming Replication Protocol Interface

The commands

  • +CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT +`+slot_name++ LOGICAL `_`+output_plugin`_

  • +DROP_REPLICATION_SLOT +`+slot_name+ +WAIT+` ]

  • +START_REPLICATION SLOT +`+slot_name++ LOGICAL …​+`

are used to create, drop, and stream changes from a replication slot, respectively. These commands are only available over a replication connection; they cannot be used via SQL. See Section 52.4 for details on these commands.

The command pg_recvlogical can be used to control logical decoding over a streaming replication connection. (It uses these commands internally.)
