Rushabh Shah updated PHOENIX-6847:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently customer using phoenix runs the following statements to check if a 
view exists or not.
{noformat}
  public static boolean checkTableViewExists(Connection connection, String 
schema, String viewName)
      throws SQLException {
    DatabaseMetaData meta = connection.getMetaData();
    ResultSet resultSet = meta.getTables(null, schema, viewName, new String[] 
{"VIEW"});
    return resultSet.next();
  }
{noformat}
IMHO this is NOT very user friendly.
We need to provide either of the 2 APIs
{noformat}
public PTable getView(String viewName, String tenantID);  OR 
public boolean viewExists(String schemaName, String viewName, String tenantID);
{noformat}
