AWS SDK Version 3 for .NET
API Reference

AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

Retrieves the stream records from a given shard.

Specify a shard iterator using the ShardIterator parameter. The shard iterator specifies the position in the shard from which you want to start reading stream records sequentially. If there are no stream records available in the portion of the shard that the iterator points to, GetRecords returns an empty list. Note that it might take multiple calls to get to a portion of the shard that contains stream records.

GetRecords can retrieve a maximum of 1 MB of data or 1000 stream records, whichever comes first.

Note:

This is an asynchronous operation using the standard naming convention for .NET 4.5 or higher. For .NET 3.5 the operation is implemented as a pair of methods using the standard naming convention of BeginGetRecords and EndGetRecords.

Namespace: Amazon.DynamoDBv2
Assembly: AWSSDK.DynamoDBv2.dll
Version: 3.x.y.z

Syntax

C#
public virtual Task<GetRecordsResponse> GetRecordsAsync(
         GetRecordsRequest request,
         CancellationToken cancellationToken
)

Parameters

request
Type: Amazon.DynamoDBv2.Model.GetRecordsRequest

Container for the necessary parameters to execute the GetRecords service method.

cancellationToken
Type: System.Threading.CancellationToken

A cancellation token that can be used by other objects or threads to receive notice of cancellation.

Return Value


The response from the GetRecords service method, as returned by DynamoDBStreams.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
ExpiredIteratorException The shard iterator has expired and can no longer be used to retrieve stream records. A shard iterator expires 15 minutes after it is retrieved using the GetShardIterator action.
InternalServerErrorException An error occurred on the server side.
LimitExceededException There is no limit to the number of daily on-demand backups that can be taken. For most purposes, up to 500 simultaneous table operations are allowed per account. These operations include CreateTable, UpdateTable, DeleteTable,UpdateTimeToLive, RestoreTableFromBackup, and RestoreTableToPointInTime. When you are creating a table with one or more secondary indexes, you can have up to 250 such requests running at a time. However, if the table or index specifications are complex, then DynamoDB might temporarily reduce the number of concurrent operations. When importing into DynamoDB, up to 50 simultaneous import table operations are allowed per account. There is a soft account quota of 2,500 tables. GetRecords was called with a value of more than 1000 for the limit request parameter. More than 2 processes are reading from the same streams shard at the same time. Exceeding this limit may result in request throttling.
ResourceNotFoundException The operation tried to access a nonexistent table or index. The resource might not be specified correctly, or its status might not be ACTIVE.
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.
