# Viewing the Dynamic Table Refresh Mode with the SHOW Command
Use `SHOW DYNAMIC TABLE REFRESH HISTORY` to check the refresh mode. In the output, the `refresh_mode` field indicates whether incremental refresh was used, and the `stats` field records the row counts for incremental refreshes.


**Syntax**

```SQL
 SHOW DYNAMIC TABLE REFRESH HISTORY [where <expr>] [LIMIT num];
```

**Parameters**

* `WHERE <expr>`: (Optional) Filters results based on the fields displayed by the `SHOW JOBS` command. You can use an expression to narrow down the results and find the data you need more precisely.
* `LIMIT num`: (Optional) Limits the number of job records returned. Valid range: 1–10000.

**Return Fields**
