aws athena start-query-execution
Runs the SQL query statements contained in the Query. Requires you to have access to the workgroup in which the query ran. Running queries against an external catalog requires GetDataCatalog permission to the catalog. For code samples using the AWS SDK for Java, see Examples and Code Samples in the Amazon Athena User Guide
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--query-string <string> | The SQL query statements to be executed |
--client-request-token <string> | A unique case-sensitive string used to ensure the request to create the query is idempotent (executes only once). If another StartQueryExecution request is received, the same response is returned and another query is not created. If a parameter has changed, for example, the QueryString, an error is returned. This token is listed as not required because AWS SDKs (for example the AWS SDK for Java) auto-generate the token for users. If you are not using the AWS SDK or the AWS CLI, you must provide this token or the action will fail |
--query-execution-context <structure> | The database within which the query executes |
--result-configuration <structure> | Specifies information about where and how to save the results of the query execution. If the query runs in a workgroup, then workgroup's settings may override query settings. This affects the query results location. The workgroup settings override is specified in EnforceWorkGroupConfiguration (true/false) in the WorkGroupConfiguration. See WorkGroupConfiguration$EnforceWorkGroupConfiguration |
--work-group <string> | The name of the workgroup in which the query is being started |
--cli-input-json <string> | Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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 |
--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``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command |
