Command syntax

Description

Ensure that writes on a given table are written to permanent storage. Queries that specify soft durability do not wait for writes to be committed to disk; a call to sync on a table will not return until all previous writes to the table are completed, guaranteeing the data’s persistence.

If successful, the operation returns an object: {"synced": 1}.

Example: After having updated multiple heroes with soft durability, we now want to wait until these changes are persisted.

r.table("marvel").sync().run(conn);
