ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
- reference
The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement enables you to rollback a transaction.
Purpose
The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
statement enables you to rollback an ACID transaction.
You can rollback the entire transaction, or rollback to a previous savepoint.
Refer to SQL++ Support for Couchbase Transactions for further information.
This statement may only be used within a transaction.
If you are using the Query REST API, you must set the txid query parameter to specify the transaction ID.
If you are using the Query Workbench, you don’t need to specify the transaction ID, as long as the statement is part of a multi-statement request. When you start a transaction within a multi-statement request, all statements within the request are assumed to be part of the same transaction until you rollback or commit the transaction.
Similarly, if you are using the cbq shell, you don’t need to specify the transaction ID. Once you have started a transaction, all statements within the cbq shell session are assumed to be part of the same transaction until you rollback or commit the transaction. [1]
When you rollback the entire transaction, this statement removes all savepoints within the transaction.
If you are using the cbq shell, and a transaction fails for any reason, you must use the ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement to remove the transaction context and reset the transaction ID.

1 | Before setting the second savepoint, the booking document has user "0" , name "Keon Hoppe" . |
2 | After setting the second savepoint and performing an update, the booking document has user "1" , name "Rigoberto Bernier" . |
3 | After rolling back to the second savepoint, the booking document again has user "0" , name "Keon Hoppe" . |
Check the result of rolling back the transaction.
