System Tables

System tables enable read-only access to metadata for built-in Convex features. Currently there are two system tables exposed:

• "_scheduled_functions" table contains metadata for scheduled functions
• "_storage" table contains metadata for stored files

You can read data from system tables using the db.system.get and db.system.query methods, which work the same as the standard db.get and db.query methods. Queries reading from system tables are reactive and realtime just like queries reading from all other tables, and pagination can be used to enumerate all documents even when there are too many to read in a single query.
