SQL DROP VIEW Example

Before you can drop a view, you must first create it. In our TechKubo playground, views are not permanent — they are deleted when the browser or tab is refreshed. Below is a full example of how to create and drop a view using the Patients table:

Step 1: Create a View (must be done in the same session)

CREATE VIEW FemalePatientNames AS
SELECT first_name, last_name
FROM Patients
WHERE gender = 'F'

Step 2: Drop the View

DROP VIEW FemalePatientNames
