Prerequisites CLI installed, logged in, and cluster context set (see skill). Target collection must exist (see collection skill). Commands Reference All partition commands accept an optional --database flag. If omitted, the database from the current context is used. Create a Partition List Partitions Drop a Partition Check if a Partition Exists Get Statistics Load a Partition Release a Partition Guidance Every collection has a default default partition. Partitions allow organizing data for more targeted searches. A partition must be loaded before it can be searched. Before dropping a partition, confirm with the user -- all data in it will be deleted. Use partition stats to check row counts per partition. For filter expression syntax used in vector operations on partitions, see the vector skill.
