string
The ID of the Data Catalog in which to create the Table. If none is supplied, the AWS account ID is used by default.
string
[REQUIRED]
The catalog database in which to create the new table. For Hive compatibility, this name is entirely lowercase.
dict
[REQUIRED]

Description (string) --
A description of the table.
Owner (string) --
The table owner.
LastAccessTime (datetime) --
The last time that the table was accessed.
LastAnalyzedTime (datetime) --
The last time that column statistics were computed for this table.
Retention (integer) --
The retention time for this table.
StorageDescriptor (dict) --
A storage descriptor containing information about the physical storage of this table.
Columns (list) --
A list of the Columns in the table.
(dict) --

Type (string) --
The data type of the Column.
Comment (string) --
A free-form text comment.
Parameters (dict) --
These key-value pairs define properties associated with the column.
(string) --
(string) --
Location (string) --
The physical location of the table. By default, this takes the form of the warehouse location, followed by the database location in the warehouse, followed by the table name.

SkewedColumnValueLocationMaps (dict) --
A mapping of skewed values to the columns that contain them.
(string) --
(string) --
StoredAsSubDirectories (boolean) --
True if the table data is stored in subdirectories, or False if not.
PartitionKeys (list) --
A list of columns by which the table is partitioned. Only primitive types are supported as partition keys.
When you create a table used by Amazon Athena, and you do not specify any partitionKeys, you must at least set the value of partitionKeys to an empty list. For example:
"PartitionKeys": []
