Keyspaces / Client / get_table

get_table#

Keyspaces.Client.get_table(**kwargs)#

Returns information about the table, including the table’s name and current status, the keyspace name, configuration settings, and metadata.

To read table metadata using GetTable, the IAM principal needs Select action permissions for the table and the system keyspace.

        The read/write throughput capacity mode for a table. The options are:

        • throughputMode:PAY_PER_REQUEST and

        • throughputMode:PROVISIONED - Provisioned capacity mode requires readCapacityUnits and writeCapacityUnits as input.

        The default is throughput_mode:PAY_PER_REQUEST.

        For more information, see Read/write capacity modes in the Amazon Keyspaces Developer Guide.

      • readCapacityUnits (integer) –

        The throughput capacity specified for read operations defined in read capacity units (RCUs).

        If the multi-Region table is using provisioned capacity and has optional auto scaling policies configured, note that the Region specific summary returns both read and write capacity settings. But only Region specific read capacity settings can be configured for a multi-Region table. In a multi-Region table, your write capacity units will be synced across all Amazon Web Services Regions to ensure that there is enough capacity to replicate write events across Regions.

          • throughputMode (string) –

            The read/write throughput capacity mode for a table. The options are:

          • lastUpdateToPayPerRequestTimestamp (datetime) –

            The timestamp of the last operation that changed the provisioned throughput capacity of a table.
