describe-dataset¶
Description¶
Returns the definition of a specific DataBrew dataset.
See also: AWS API Documentation
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Synopsis¶
describe-dataset
--name <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
Options¶
--name (string)
The name of the dataset to be described.
--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.
--generate-cli-skeleton (string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

PathOptions -> (structure)
A set of options that defines how DataBrew interprets an Amazon S3 path of the dataset.
LastModifiedDateCondition -> (structure)
If provided, this structure defines a date range for matching Amazon S3 objects based on their LastModifiedDate attribute in Amazon S3.
Expression -> (string)
The expression which includes condition names followed by substitution variables, possibly grouped and combined with other conditions. For example, “(starts_with :prefix1 or starts_with :prefix2) and (ends_with :suffix1 or ends_with :suffix2)”. Substitution variables should start with ‘:’ symbol.
ValuesMap -> (map)
The map of substitution variable names to their values used in this filter expression.
key -> (string)
value -> (string)

If provided, this structure imposes a limit on a number of files that should be selected.
MaxFiles -> (integer)
The number of Amazon S3 files to select.

A criteria to use for Amazon S3 files sorting before their selection. By default uses LAST_MODIFIED_DATE as a sorting criteria. Currently it’s the only allowed value.
Order -> (string)
A criteria to use for Amazon S3 files sorting before their selection. By default uses DESCENDING order, i.e. most recent files are selected first. Anotherpossible value is ASCENDING.
Parameters -> (map)
A structure that maps names of parameters used in the Amazon S3 path of a dataset to their definitions.
key -> (string)
value -> (structure)
Represents a dataset paramater that defines type and conditions for a parameter in the Amazon S3 path of the dataset.
Name -> (string)
The name of the parameter that is used in the dataset’s Amazon S3 path.
Type -> (string)
The type of the dataset parameter, can be one of a ‘String’, ‘Number’ or ‘Datetime’.
DatetimeOptions -> (structure)
Additional parameter options such as a format and a timezone. Required for datetime parameters.
Format -> (string)
Required option, that defines the datetime format used for a date parameter in the Amazon S3 path. Should use only supported datetime specifiers and separation characters, all literal a-z or A-Z characters should be escaped with single quotes. E.g. “MM.dd.yyyy-‘at’-HH:mm”.
