ALL_IND_COLUMNS

ALL_IND_COLUMNS describes the columns of indexes on all tables accessible to the current user.

Note:

For join indexes, the TABLE_NAME and TABLE_OWNER columns in this view may not match the TABLE_NAME and TABLE_OWNER columns you find in the *_INDEXES (and other similar) data dictionary views.

"REF_name"."attribute"

COLUMN_POSITION NUMBER NOT NULL Position of column or attribute within the index
COLUMN_LENGTH NUMBER NOT NULL Indexed length of the column
CHAR_LENGTH NUMBER
Maximum codepoint length of the column
