Amazon DynamoDB

2021/11/23 - Amazon DynamoDB - 3 updated api methods

Changes  DynamoDB PartiQL now supports ReturnConsumedCapacity, which returns capacity units consumed by PartiQL APIs if the request specified returnConsumedCapacity parameter. PartiQL APIs include ExecuteStatement, BatchExecuteStatement, and ExecuteTransaction.

type Statements:

list

param Statements:

[REQUIRED]

The list of PartiQL statements representing the batch to run.

  • (dict) --

    A PartiQL batch statement request.

    • Statement (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      A valid PartiQL statement.

    • Parameters (list) --

      The parameters associated with a PartiQL statement in the batch request.

      • (dict) --

        Represents the data for an attribute.

        Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

        For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        • S (string) --

          An attribute of type String. For example:

          "S": "Hello"

        • N (string) --

          An attribute of type Number. For example:

          "N": "123.45"

          Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

        • B (bytes) --

          An attribute of type Binary. For example:

          "B": "dGhpcyB0ZXh0IGlzIGJhc2U2NC1lbmNvZGVk"

          An attribute of type Number Set. For example:

          "NS": ["42.2", "-19", "7.5", "3.14"]

          Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

          • (string) --

        • BS (list) --

          An attribute of type Binary Set. For example:

          • (string) --

            • (dict) --

              Represents the data for an attribute.

              Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

              For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        • L (list) --

          An attribute of type List. For example:

      The read consistency of the PartiQL batch request.

type ReturnConsumedCapacity:

string

param ReturnConsumedCapacity:

Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

  • INDEXES - The response includes the aggregate ConsumedCapacity for the operation, together with ConsumedCapacity for each table and secondary index that was accessed. Note that some operations, such as GetItem and BatchGetItem, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying INDEXES will only return ConsumedCapacity information for table(s).

  • TOTAL - The response includes only the aggregate ConsumedCapacity for the operation.

  • NONE - No ConsumedCapacity details are included in the response.

      Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

    • B (bytes) --

      An attribute of type Binary. For example:

      "B": "dGhpcyB0ZXh0IGlzIGJhc2U2NC1lbmNvZGVk"

      "SS": ["Giraffe", "Hippo" ,"Zebra"]

      • (string) --

    • NS (list) --

      An attribute of type Number Set. For example:

      "NS": ["42.2", "-19", "7.5", "3.14"]

      Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

      • (string) --

    • BS (list) --

      An attribute of type Binary Set. For example:

      • (string) --

        • (dict) --

          Represents the data for an attribute.

          Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

          For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

    • L (list) --

      An attribute of type List. For example:

      "L": [ {"S": "Cookies"} , {"S": "Coffee"}, {"N", "3.14159"}]

      • (dict) --

        Represents the data for an attribute.

        Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

    • BOOL (boolean) --

      An attribute of type Boolean. For example:

type ConsistentRead:

boolean

param ConsistentRead:

The consistency of a read operation. If set to true, then a strongly consistent read is used; otherwise, an eventually consistent read is used.

type NextToken:

string

param NextToken:

Set this value to get remaining results, if NextToken was returned in the statement response.

type ReturnConsumedCapacity:

string

param ReturnConsumedCapacity:

Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

  • INDEXES - The response includes the aggregate ConsumedCapacity for the operation, together with ConsumedCapacity for each table and secondary index that was accessed. Note that some operations, such as GetItem and BatchGetItem, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying INDEXES will only return ConsumedCapacity information for table(s).

  • TOTAL - The response includes only the aggregate ConsumedCapacity for the operation.

  • NONE - No ConsumedCapacity details are included in the response.

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • Responses (list) --

      The response to a PartiQL transaction.

      • (dict) --

        Details for the requested item.

        • Item (dict) --

          Map of attribute data consisting of the data type and attribute value.

          • (string) --

            • (dict) --

              Represents the data for an attribute.

              Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

              For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

              • S (string) --

                An attribute of type String. For example:

                "S": "Hello"

              • N (string) --

                An attribute of type Number. For example:

                "N": "123.45"

                Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

              • B (bytes) --

                An attribute of type Binary. For example:

                "B": "dGhpcyB0ZXh0IGlzIGJhc2U2NC1lbmNvZGVk"

              • SS (list) --

                An attribute of type String Set. For example:

                "SS": ["Giraffe", "Hippo" ,"Zebra"]

                • (string) --

              • NS (list) --

                An attribute of type Number Set. For example:

                "NS": ["42.2", "-19", "7.5", "3.14"]

                Numbers are sent across the network to DynamoDB as strings, to maximize compatibility across languages and libraries. However, DynamoDB treats them as number type attributes for mathematical operations.

                • (string) --

              • BS (list) --

                An attribute of type Binary Set. For example:

                "BS": ["U3Vubnk=", "UmFpbnk=", "U25vd3k="]

                • (bytes) --

              • M (dict) --

                An attribute of type Map. For example:

                "M": {"Name": {"S": "Joe"}, "Age": {"N": "35"}}

                • (string) --

                  • (dict) --

                    Represents the data for an attribute.

                    Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

                    For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

              • L (list) --

                An attribute of type List. For example:

                "L": [ {"S": "Cookies"} , {"S": "Coffee"}, {"N", "3.14159"}]

                • (dict) --

                  Represents the data for an attribute.

                  Each attribute value is described as a name-value pair. The name is the data type, and the value is the data itself.

                  For more information, see Data Types in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

              • NULL (boolean) --

                An attribute of type Null. For example:

                "NULL": true

              • BOOL (boolean) --
