## upsert_alias

> models::CollectionAlias upsert_alias(alias_name, collection_alias_schema)
Create or update a collection alias

Create or update a collection alias. An alias is a virtual collection name that points to a real collection. If you're familiar with symbolic links on Linux, it's very similar to that. Aliases are useful when you want to reindex your data in the background on a new collection and switch your application to it without any changes to your code.

### Parameters


Name | Type | Description  | Required | Notes
------------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | -------------
**alias_name** | **String** | The name of the alias to create/update | [required] |
**collection_alias_schema** | Option<[**CollectionAliasSchema**]CollectionAliasSchema.md> | Collection alias to be created/updated |  |

### Return type

[**models::CollectionAlias**](CollectionAlias.md)

### Authorization

[api_key_header](../README.md#api_key_header)

### HTTP request headers

- **Content-Type**: application/json
- **Accept**: application/json
