ExecuteStatement

Runs an SQL statement, which can be data manipulation language (DML) or data definition language (DDL). This statement must be a single SQL statement. 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.
