CALL PROCEDURE

Executes a stored procedure by calling its name, optionally passing arguments if the procedure requires them.

Syntax

Examples

This example demonstrates how to create and call a stored procedure that converts a weight from kilograms (kg) to pounds (lb):

CREATE PROCEDURE convert_kg_to_lb(kg DECIMAL(4, 2))
RETURNS DECIMAL(10, 2)
LANGUAGE SQL
COMMENT = 'Converts kilograms to pounds'
AS $$
BEGIN
    RETURN kg * 2.20462;
END;
$$;

CALL PROCEDURE convert_kg_to_lb(10.00);
