Delete Table

dynamodb_delete_table

R Documentation

The DeleteTable operation deletes a table and all of its items

Description

The delete_table operation deletes a table and all of its items. After a delete_table request, the specified table is in the DELETING state until DynamoDB completes the deletion. If the table is in the ACTIVE state, you can delete it. If a table is in CREATING or UPDATING states, then DynamoDB returns a ResourceInUseException. If the specified table does not exist, DynamoDB returns a ResourceNotFoundException. If table is already in the DELETING state, no error is returned.

For global tables, this operation only applies to global tables using Version 2019.11.21 (Current version).

DynamoDB might continue to accept data read and write operations, such as get_item and put_item, on a table in the DELETING state until the table deletion is complete. For the full list of table states, see TableStatus.

When you delete a table, any indexes on that table are also deleted.

If you have DynamoDB Streams enabled on the table, then the corresponding stream on that table goes into the DISABLED state, and the stream is automatically deleted after 24 hours.

Use the describe_table action to check the status of the table.

Usage

dynamodb_delete_table(TableName)

Arguments

TableName

[required] The name of the table to delete. You can also provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the table in this parameter.
