Structure Class

IncrementalExportSpecification dataclass

Optional object containing the parameters specific to an incremental export.

Attributes

export_from_time class-attribute instance-attribute 
export_from_time: datetime | None = None

Time in the past which provides the inclusive start range for the export table's data, counted in seconds from the start of the Unix epoch. The incremental export will reflect the table's state including and after this point in time.

export_to_time class-attribute instance-attribute 
export_to_time: datetime | None = None

Time in the past which provides the exclusive end range for the export table's data, counted in seconds from the start of the Unix epoch. The incremental export will reflect the table's state just prior to this point in time. If this is not provided, the latest time with data available will be used.

export_view_type class-attribute instance-attribute 
export_view_type: ExportViewType | None = None

The view type that was chosen for the export. Valid values are NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES and NEW_IMAGES. The default value is NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES.

NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES exports both the new and old images of each changed item, while NEW_IMAGES exports only the new (latest) image. The view type you choose determines the structure of each item in the output for insert, update, and delete operations. For details and examples of how each view type shapes the export output, see DynamoDB table export output format in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
