### Syntax
```sql
RESET;
RESET configuration_key;
```
### Parameters
* **(none)**
Reset any runtime configurations specific to the current session which were set via the [SET](sql-ref-syntax-aux-conf-mgmt-set.html) command to their default values.
* **configuration_key**
Restore the value of the `configuration_key` to the default value. If the default value is undefined, the `configuration_key` will be removed.
