Viewing data filters

You can use the Lake Formation console, AWS CLI, or the Lake Formation API to view data filters.

To view data filters, you must be a Data Lake administrator or have the required permissions on the data filters.

Console

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Lake Formation console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/lakeformation/.

2. In the navigation pane, under Data catalog, choose Data filters.

   The page displays the data filters you have access to.

   

3. To view the data filter details, choose the data filter, and then choose View. A new window appears with the data filter detailed information.

   

AWS CLI

Enter a list-data-cells-filter command and specify a table resource.

The following example lists the data filters for the cloudtrailtest_cloudtrail table.

aws lakeformation list-data-cells-filter --table '{ "CatalogId":"123456789012", 
"DatabaseName":"lakeformation_cloudtrail", "Name":"cloudtrailtest_cloudtrail"}'

API/SDK

Use the ListDataCellsFilter API and specify a table resource.

The following example uses Python to list the first 20 data filters for the myTable table.

response = client.list_data_cells_filter(
    Table = {
        'CatalogId': '111122223333',
        'DatabaseName': 'mydb',
        'Name': 'myTable'
    },
    MaxResults=20
)
