Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
InternalServerErrorException An error occurred on the server side.
ResourceNotFoundException The operation tried to access a nonexistent stream.
TrimmedDataAccessException The operation attempted to read past the oldest stream record in a shard. In DynamoDB Streams, there is a 24 hour limit on data retention. Stream records whose age exceeds this limit are subject to removal (trimming) from the stream. You might receive a TrimmedDataAccessException if: You request a shard iterator with a sequence number older than the trim point (24 hours).You obtain a shard iterator, but before you use the iterator in a GetRecords request, a stream record in the shard exceeds the 24 hour period and is trimmed. This causes the iterator to access a record that no longer exists.
