Description

Retrieves the definitions of some or all of the tables in a given Database.

This cmdlet automatically pages all available results to the pipeline - parameters related to iteration are only needed if you want to manually control the paginated output. To disable autopagination, use -NoAutoIteration.

Parameters

-AttributesToGet <String[]>
Specifies the table fields returned by the GetTables call. This parameter doesn’t accept an empty list. The request must include NAME.The following are the valid combinations of values:
  • NAME - Names of all tables in the database.
  • NAME, TABLE_TYPE - Names of all tables and the table types.
Starting with version 4 of the SDK this property will default to null. If no data for this property is returned from the service the property will also be null. This was changed to improve performance and allow the SDK and caller to distinguish between a property not set or a property being empty to clear out a value. To retain the previous SDK behavior set the AWSConfigs.InitializeCollections static property to true.
Required?False

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-AuditContext_AdditionalAuditContext <String>
A string containing the additional audit context information.
Required?False

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-AuditContext_RequestedColumn <String[]>
The requested columns for audit. Starting with version 4 of the SDK this property will default to null. If no data for this property is returned from the service the property will also be null. This was changed to improve performance and allow the SDK and caller to distinguish between a property not set or a property being empty to clear out a value.

AliasesIncludeStatusDetails
-MaxResult <Int32>
The maximum number of tables to return in a single response.
Note: In AWSPowerShell and AWSPowerShell.NetCore this parameter is used to limit the total number of items returned by the cmdlet.
In AWS.Tools this parameter is simply passed to the service to specify how many items should be returned by each service call.
Pipe the output of this cmdlet into Select-Object -First to terminate retrieving data pages early and control the number of items returned.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesMaxItems, MaxResults
-NextToken <String>
A continuation token, included if this is a continuation call.
Note: This parameter is only used if you are manually controlling output pagination of the service API call.
'NextToken' is only returned by the cmdlet when '-Select *' is specified. In order to manually control output pagination, set '-NextToken' to null for the first call then set the 'NextToken' using the same property output from the previous call for subsequent calls.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NoAutoIteration <SwitchParameter>
By default the cmdlet will auto-iterate and retrieve all results to the pipeline by performing multiple service calls. If set, the cmdlet will retrieve only the next 'page' of results using the value of NextToken as the start point.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-QueryAsOfTime <DateTime>
The time as of when to read the table contents. If not set, the most recent transaction commit time will be used. Cannot be specified along with TransactionId.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'TableList'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.Glue.Model.GetTablesResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.Glue.Model.GetTablesResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False

-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.

Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
