## Examples

List all TiDB specific variables. For detailed description, refer to [System Variables](/system-variables.md).
The following example demonstrates how to use the `SHOW [GLOBAL|SESSION] VARIABLES` statement to show variables whose names or values match a specific pattern. For detailed descriptions of these variables, see [System Variables](/system-variables.md).

```sql
mysql> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'tidb%';
mysql> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'tidb_stmt_summary%';
