ListSchemas - Amazon Redshift Data API

ListSchemas

Lists the schemas in a database. A token is returned to page through the schema list. Depending on the authorization method, use one of the following combinations of request parameters:

  • AWS Secrets Manager - when connecting to a cluster, provide the secret-arn of a secret stored in AWS Secrets Manager which has username and password. The specified secret contains credentials to connect to the database you specify. When you are connecting to a cluster, you also supply the database name, If you provide a cluster identifier (dbClusterIdentifier), it must match the cluster identifier stored in the secret. When you are connecting to a serverless workgroup, you also supply the database name.

  • Temporary credentials - when connecting to your data warehouse, choose one of the following options:

    • When connecting to a serverless workgroup, specify the workgroup name and database name. The database user name is derived from the IAM identity. For example, arn:iam::123456789012:user:foo has the database user name IAM:foo. Also, permission to call the redshift-serverless:GetCredentials operation is required.

    • When connecting to a cluster as an IAM identity, specify the cluster identifier and the database name. The database user name is derived from the IAM identity. For example, arn:iam::123456789012:user:foo has the database user name IAM:foo. Also, permission to call the redshift:GetClusterCredentialsWithIAM operation is required.

    • When connecting to a cluster as a database user, specify the cluster identifier, the database name, and the database user name. Also, permission to call the redshift:GetClusterCredentials operation is required.

Request Syntax

{ "ClusterIdentifier": "string", "ConnectedDatabase": "string", "Database": "string", "DbUser": "string", "MaxResults": number, "NextToken": "string", "SchemaPattern": "string", "SecretArn": "string", "WorkgroupName": "string" }

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

Note

In the following list, the required parameters are described first.

Database

The name of the database that contains the schemas to list. If ConnectedDatabase is not specified, this is also the database to connect to with your authentication credentials.

Type: String

Required: Yes

ClusterIdentifier

The cluster identifier. This parameter is required when connecting to a cluster and authenticating using either AWS Secrets Manager or temporary credentials.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 63.

Required: No

ConnectedDatabase

A database name. The connected database is specified when you connect with your authentication credentials.

Type: String

Required: No

DbUser

The database user name. This parameter is required when connecting to a cluster as a database user and authenticating using temporary credentials.

Type: String

Required: No

MaxResults

The maximum number of schemas to return in the response. If more schemas exist than fit in one response, then NextToken is returned to page through the results.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 1000.

Required: No

NextToken

A value that indicates the starting point for the next set of response records in a subsequent request. If a value is returned in a response, you can retrieve the next set of records by providing this returned NextToken value in the next NextToken parameter and retrying the command. If the NextToken field is empty, all response records have been retrieved for the request.

Type: String

Required: No

SchemaPattern

A pattern to filter results by schema name. Within a schema pattern, "%" means match any substring of 0 or more characters and "_" means match any one character. Only schema name entries matching the search pattern are returned.

Type: String

Required: No

SecretArn

The name or ARN of the secret that enables access to the database. This parameter is required when authenticating using AWS Secrets Manager.

Type: String

Required: No

WorkgroupName

The serverless workgroup name or Amazon Resource Name (ARN). This parameter is required when connecting to a serverless workgroup and authenticating using either AWS Secrets Manager or temporary credentials.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 3. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: ^(([a-z0-9-]+)|(arn:(aws(-[a-z]+)*):redshift-serverless:[a-z]{2}(-gov)?-[a-z]+-\d{1}:\d{12}:workgroup/[0-9a-f]{8}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{12}))$

Required: No

Response Syntax

{ "NextToken": "string", "Schemas": [ "string" ] }

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

NextToken

A value that indicates the starting point for the next set of response records in a subsequent request. If a value is returned in a response, you can retrieve the next set of records by providing this returned NextToken value in the next NextToken parameter and retrying the command. If the NextToken field is empty, all response records have been retrieved for the request.

Type: String

Schemas

The schemas that match the request pattern.

Type: Array of strings
