Untuk memindai tabel

scanContoh berikut memindai seluruh MusicCollection tabel, dan kemudian mempersempit hasilnya menjadi lagu-lagu oleh artis “No One You Know”. Untuk setiap item, hanya judul album dan judul lagu yang dikembalikan.

aws dynamodb scan \
    --table-name MusicCollection \
    --filter-expression "Artist = :a" \
    --projection-expression "#ST, #AT" \
    --expression-attribute-names file://expression-attribute-names.json \
    --expression-attribute-values file://expression-attribute-values.json

Isi dari expression-attribute-names.json:

{
    "#ST": "SongTitle",
    "#AT":"AlbumTitle"
}

Isi dari expression-attribute-values.json:

{
    ":a": {"S": "No One You Know"}
}

Output:

{
    "Count": 2,
    "Items": [
        {
            "SongTitle": {
                "S": "Call Me Today"
            },
            "AlbumTitle": {
                "S": "Somewhat Famous"
            }
        },
        {
            "SongTitle": {
                "S": "Scared of My Shadow"
            },
            "AlbumTitle": {
                "S": "Blue Sky Blues"
            }
        }
