Input Schema ​

FieldTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
organization_uuiduuidYes—Authenticated organization UUID used for field resolution and connection scoping.
connection_uuiduuidYes—AWS CloudConnection UUID for the target DynamoDB account, scoped to the caller organization.
workflow_run_idstringNo—Engine DAG run ID stamped onto child steps.
regionstringNo—AWS API endpoint region override; omit to use the connection or SDK default.
table_namestringYes—The name of the table containing the requested items or if you provide IndexName, the name of the table to which that index belongs. You can also provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the table...
index_namestringNo—The name of a secondary index to scan. This index can be any local secondary index or global secondary index. Note that if you use the IndexName parameter, you must also provide TableName.
attributes_to_getlistNo—This is a legacy parameter. Use ProjectionExpression instead. For more information, see AttributesToGet in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
limitintegerNo—The maximum number of items to evaluate (not necessarily the number of matching items). If DynamoDB processes the number of items up to the limit while processing the results, it stops the operatio...
selectstringNo—The attributes to be returned in the result. You can retrieve all item attributes, specific item attributes, the count of matching items, or in the case of an index, some or all of the attributes p...
scan_filterjsonNo—This is a legacy parameter. Use FilterExpression instead. For more information, see ScanFilter in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
conditional_operatorstringNo—This is a legacy parameter. Use FilterExpression instead. For more information, see ConditionalOperator in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
exclusive_start_keyjsonNo—The primary key of the first item that this operation will evaluate. Use the value that was returned for LastEvaluatedKey in the previous operation. The data type for ExclusiveStartKey must be Stri...
return_consumed_capacitystringNo—Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response: INDEXES - The response includes the aggregate ConsumedCapacity for the...
total_segmentsintegerNo—For a parallel Scan request, TotalSegments represents the total number of segments into which the Scan operation will be divided. The value of TotalSegments corresponds to the number of application...
segmentintegerNo—For a parallel Scan request, Segment identifies an individual segment to be scanned by an application worker. Segment IDs are zero-based, so the first segment is always 0. For example, if you want...
projection_expressionstringNo—A string that identifies one or more attributes to retrieve from the specified table or index. These attributes can include scalars, sets, or elements of a JSON document. The attributes in the expr...
filter_expressionstringNo—A string that contains conditions that DynamoDB applies after the Scan operation, but before the data is returned to you. Items that do not satisfy the FilterExpression criteria are not returned. A...
expression_attribute_namesjsonNo—One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ExpressionAttributeNames: To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoD...
expression_attribute_valuesjsonNo—One or more values that can be substituted in an expression. Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether th...
consistent_readbooleanNo—A Boolean value that determines the read consistency model during the scan: If ConsistentRead is false, then the data returned from Scan might not contain the results from other recently completed...
provider_native_requestjsonNo—Optional provider-native request overrides for AWS parameters not yet promoted to first-class fields.
