# Work with advanced DynamoDB Global Secondary Index scenarios using AWS Command Line Interface v2
<a name="example_dynamodb_Scenario_GSIAdvanced_section"></a>

The following code example shows how to work with advanced Global Secondary Index configurations.
+ Create a table with multiple GSIs.
+ Create a table with on-demand capacity and GSI.
+ Put items into a table with multiple GSIs.
+ Query multiple GSIs with different conditions.

------
#### [ Bash ]

**AWS CLI with Bash script**  
Create a table with multiple GSIs.  

```
# Create a table with multiple GSIs
aws dynamodb create-table \
    --table-name MusicLibrary \
    --attribute-definitions \
        AttributeName=Artist,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=SongTitle,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=AlbumTitle,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=Genre,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=Year,AttributeType=N \
    --key-schema \
        AttributeName=Artist,KeyType=HASH \
        AttributeName=SongTitle,KeyType=RANGE \
    --billing-mode PAY_PER_REQUEST \
    --global-secondary-indexes \
        "[
            {
                \"IndexName\": \"AlbumIndex\",
                \"KeySchema\": [{\"AttributeName\":\"AlbumTitle\",\"KeyType\":\"HASH\"}],
                \"Projection\": {\"ProjectionType\":\"ALL\"}
            },
            {
                \"IndexName\": \"GenreYearIndex\",
                \"KeySchema\": [
                    {\"AttributeName\":\"Genre\",\"KeyType\":\"HASH\"},
                    {\"AttributeName\":\"Year\",\"KeyType\":\"RANGE\"}
                ],
                \"Projection\": {\"ProjectionType\":\"INCLUDE\",\"NonKeyAttributes\":[\"Artist\",\"SongTitle\"]}
            }
        ]"
```
Create a table with on-demand capacity and GSI.  

```
# Create a table with on-demand capacity and GSI
aws dynamodb create-table \
    --table-name MusicOnDemand \
    --attribute-definitions \
        AttributeName=Artist,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=SongTitle,AttributeType=S \
        AttributeName=Genre,AttributeType=S \
    --key-schema \
        AttributeName=Artist,KeyType=HASH \
        AttributeName=SongTitle,KeyType=RANGE \
    --billing-mode PAY_PER_REQUEST \
    --global-secondary-indexes \
        "[
            {
                \"IndexName\": \"GenreIndex\",
                \"KeySchema\": [{\"AttributeName\":\"Genre\",\"KeyType\":\"HASH\"}],
                \"Projection\": {\"ProjectionType\":\"ALL\"}
            }
        ]"
```
Put items into a table with multiple GSIs.  

```
# Add items to MusicLibrary table
aws dynamodb put-item \
    --table-name MusicLibrary \
    --item '{
        "Artist": {"S": "The Beatles"},
        "SongTitle": {"S": "Hey Jude"},
        "AlbumTitle": {"S": "Past Masters"},
        "Genre": {"S": "Rock"},
        "Year": {"N": "1968"}
    }'

aws dynamodb put-item \
    --table-name MusicLibrary \
    --item '{
        "Artist": {"S": "Miles Davis"},
        "SongTitle": {"S": "So What"},
        "AlbumTitle": {"S": "Kind of Blue"},
        "Genre": {"S": "Jazz"},
        "Year": {"N": "1959"}
    }'
```
Query items from a table with multiple GSIs.  

```
# Query the AlbumIndex GSI
echo "Querying AlbumIndex GSI:"
aws dynamodb query \
    --table-name MusicLibrary \
    --index-name AlbumIndex \
    --key-condition-expression "AlbumTitle = :album" \
    --expression-attribute-values '{":album":{"S":"Kind of Blue"}}'

# Query the GenreYearIndex GSI with a range condition
echo "Querying GenreYearIndex GSI with range condition:"
aws dynamodb query \
    --table-name MusicLibrary \
    --index-name GenreYearIndex \
    --key-condition-expression "Genre = :genre AND #yr > :year" \
    --expression-attribute-names '{"#yr": "Year"}' \
    --expression-attribute-values '{":genre":{"S":"Rock"},":year":{"N":"1965"}}'
