INSERT example

Use the following StackQL query and manifest file to create a new global_table resource, using stack-deploy.

/*+ create */
INSERT INTO aws.dynamodb.global_tables (
AttributeDefinitions,
KeySchema,
Replicas,
region
)
SELECT
'{{ AttributeDefinitions }}',
'{{ KeySchema }}',
'{{ Replicas }}',
'{{ region }}';

DELETE example

/*+ delete */
DELETE FROM aws.dynamodb.global_tables
WHERE data__Identifier = '<TableName>'
AND region = 'us-east-1';
