Oracle/SQL: Check If Trigger Enabled/Disabled


How do you check if a specific trigger is enabled or disabled in Oracle/SQL?

The following specifies if my trigger is valid or not -- but not enabled or disabled

SELECT *
FROM   ALL_OBJECTS
WHERE  OBJECT_TYPE = 'TRIGGER' AND OBJECT_NAME = 'the_trigger_name';

My Oracle Database version: 12c - Enterprise Edition v12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit


I have checked StackOverflow and came across the following posts, but didn't find an answer specific to Oracle/SQL:


Solution

  • user_triggers is the table where all triggers created, specific to the schema, are located.

    So,

    SELECT STATUS FROM USER_TRIGGERS WHERE TRIGGER_NAME = 'the_trigger_name';
    

    will fetch the status of either ENABLED or DISABLED.

    Also, to fetch ALL triggers and their statuses--

    SELECT TRIGGER_NAME, STATUS FROM USER_TRIGGERS;
