Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the TargetTableName parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^TargetTableName' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ProvisionedThroughputOverride_ReadCapacityUnit <Int64>
The maximum number of strongly consistent reads consumed per second before DynamoDB returns a ThrottlingException. For more information, see Specifying Read and Write Requirements in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.If read/write capacity mode is PAY_PER_REQUEST the value is set to 0.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesProvisionedThroughputOverride_ReadCapacityUnits
-ProvisionedThroughputOverride_WriteCapacityUnit <Int64>
The maximum number of writes consumed per second before DynamoDB returns a ThrottlingException. For more information, see Specifying Read and Write Requirements in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.If read/write capacity mode is PAY_PER_REQUEST the value is set to 0.

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesProvisionedThroughputOverride_WriteCapacityUnits
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'TableDescription'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.DynamoDBv2.Model.RestoreTableFromBackupResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.DynamoDBv2.Model.RestoreTableFromBackupResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-SSESpecificationOverride_Enabled <Boolean>
Indicates whether server-side encryption is done using an Amazon Web Services managed key or an Amazon Web Services owned key. If enabled (true), server-side encryption type is set to KMS and an Amazon Web Services managed key is used (KMS charges apply). If disabled (false) or not specified, server-side encryption is set to Amazon Web Services owned key.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-SSESpecificationOverride_KMSMasterKeyId <String>
The KMS key that should be used for the KMS encryption. To specify a key, use its key ID, Amazon Resource Name (ARN), alias name, or alias ARN. Note that you should only provide this parameter if the key is different from the default DynamoDB key alias/aws/dynamodb.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage.

Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile.

-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
