Query below finds tables with specific name in all schemas in a database. In this case it searches for 'sales' table.

Query

select table_schema,
       table_name
from information_schema.tables
where table_name = 'sales'
      and table_schema not in ('information_schema', 'pg_catalog')
      and table_type = 'BASE TABLE'
order by table_schema;

Columns

• table_schema - name of schema table was found in
• table_name - name of table (redundant as it should be exactly the same as provided)

Rows

• One row represents a table
• Scope of rows: all found tables
• Ordered by table schema

Notes

1. There migh be more tables than one because different schemas in a database can have tables with the same names
