glue_batch_delete_table: Deletes multiple tables at once

Description

Deletes multiple tables at once.

Usage

glue_batch_delete_table(CatalogId, DatabaseName, TablesToDelete)

Arguments

CatalogId

The ID of the Data Catalog where the table resides. If none is provided, the AWS account ID is used by default.

DatabaseName

[required] The name of the catalog database in which the tables to delete reside. For Hive compatibility, this name is entirely lowercase.

TablesToDelete

[required] A list of the table to delete.

Request syntax

svc$batch_delete_table(
  CatalogId = "string",
  DatabaseName = "string",
  TablesToDelete = list(
    "string"
  )
)

Details

After completing this operation, you no longer have access to the table versions and partitions that belong to the deleted table. AWS Glue deletes these \"orphaned\" resources asynchronously in a timely manner, at the discretion of the service.

To ensure the immediate deletion of all related resources, before calling BatchDeleteTable, use DeleteTableVersion or BatchDeleteTableVersion, and DeletePartition or BatchDeletePartition, to delete any resources that belong to the table.
