dynamodb_describe_table: Returns information about the table, including the current status of the table, when it was created, the primary key schema, and any indexes on the table

Description

Returns information about the table, including the current status of the table, when it was created, the primary key schema, and any indexes on the table.

Usage

dynamodb_describe_table(TableName)

Arguments

TableName

[required] The name of the table to describe.

Request syntax

svc$describe_table(
  TableName = "string"
)

Details

If you issue a DescribeTable request immediately after a CreateTable request, DynamoDB might return a ResourceNotFoundException. This is because DescribeTable uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the DescribeTable request again.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# This example describes the Music table.
# }
# NOT RUN {
svc$describe_table(
  TableName = "Music"
)
# }
# NOT RUN {
# }
