Change primary key column in SQL Server

Question

Assuming that your current primary key constraint is called pk_history, you can replace the following lines:

ALTER TABLE history ADD PRIMARY KEY (id)

ALTER TABLE history
DROP CONSTRAINT userId
DROP CONSTRAINT name

with these:

ALTER TABLE history DROP CONSTRAINT pk_history

ALTER TABLE history ADD CONSTRAINT pk_history PRIMARY KEY (id)

If you don’t know what the name of the PK is, you can find it with the following query:

SELECT * 
  FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS 
 WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'history'
