Runs a SQL statement against a database.
Warning
If a call isn’t part of a transaction because it doesn’t include the transactionID
parameter, changes that result from the call are committed automatically.
If the binary response data from the database is more than 1 MB, the call is terminated.

--continue-after-timeout
| --no-continue-after-timeout
(boolean)
A value that indicates whether to continue running the statement after the call times out. By default, the statement stops running when the call times out.
Warning
For DDL statements, we recommend continuing to run the statement after the call times out. When a DDL statement terminates before it is finished running, it can result in errors and possibly corrupted data structures.

. The result is returned in theformattedRecords
field.For usage information about the JSON format for result sets, see Using the Data API in the Amazon Aurora User Guide .
Possible values:

--resource-arn
(string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Aurora Serverless DB cluster.
--result-set-options
(structure)
Options that control how the result set is returned.
decimalReturnType -> (string)
A value that indicates how a field of
DECIMAL
type is represented in the response. The value ofSTRING
, the default, specifies that it is converted to a String value. The value ofDOUBLE_OR_LONG
specifies that it is converted to a Long value if its scale is 0, or to a Double value otherwise.Warning
Conversion to Double or Long can result in roundoff errors due to precision loss. We recommend converting to String, especially when working with currency values.
longReturnType -> (string)
A value that indicates how a field of
LONG
type is represented. Allowed values areLONG
andSTRING
. The default isLONG
. SpecifySTRING
if the length or precision of numeric values might cause truncation or rounding errors.
Shorthand Syntax:
decimalReturnType=string,longReturnType=string
JSON Syntax:
{
"decimalReturnType": "STRING"|"DOUBLE_OR_LONG",
"longReturnType": "STRING"|"LONG"
}
--schema
(string)
The name of the database schema.
Note
Currently, the
schema
parameter isn’t supported.
--secret-arn
(string)
The ARN of the secret that enables access to the DB cluster. Enter the database user name and password for the credentials in the secret.
For information about creating the secret, see Create a database secret .
--sql
(string)
The SQL statement to run.
--transaction-id
(string)
The identifier of a transaction that was started by using the
BeginTransaction
operation. Specify the transaction ID of the transaction that you want to include the SQL statement in.If the SQL statement is not part of a transaction, don’t set this parameter.
--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Note
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.
Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
Example 1: To execute a SQL statement that is part of a transaction
The following execute-statement
example runs a SQL statement that is part of a transaction.
aws rds-data execute-statement \
--resource-arn "arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:mydbcluster" \
--database "mydb" \
--secret-arn "arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:mysecret" \
--sql "update mytable set quantity=5 where id=201" \
--transaction-id "ABC1234567890xyz"
Output:
{
"numberOfRecordsUpdated": 1
}
Example 2: To execute a SQL statement with parameters
The following execute-statement
example runs a SQL statement with parameters.
aws rds-data execute-statement \
--resource-arn "arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:cluster:mydbcluster" \
--database "mydb" \
--secret-arn "arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-east-1:123456789012:secret:mysecret" \
--sql "insert into mytable values (:id, :val)" \
--parameters "[{\"name\": \"id\", \"value\": {\"longValue\": 1}},{\"name\": \"val\", \"value\": {\"stringValue\": \"value1\"}}]"
Output:
{
"numberOfRecordsUpdated": 1
}
