mysql.help_topic Table

mysql.help_topic is one of the four tables used by the HELP command. It is populated when the server is installed by the fill_help_tables.sql script. The other help tables are help_relation, help_category and help_keyword.

This table uses the Aria storage engine. Prior to MariaDB 10.4 it used the MyISAM engine.

The mysql.help_topic table contains the following fields:
