从补丁 198 开始，Amazon Redshift 将不再支持创建新的 Python UDF。现有的 Python UDF 将继续正常运行至 2026 年 6 月 30 日。有关更多信息，请参阅[博客文章](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/amazon-redshift-python-user-defined-functions-will-reach-end-of-support-after-june-30-2026/)。

# 描述表
<a name="data-api-calling-cli-describe-table"></a>

要获取描述表的元数据，请使用 `aws redshift-data describe-table` AWS CLI 命令。

以下 AWS CLI 命令针对集群运行一个 SQL 语句，并返回描述表的元数据。此示例使用 AWS Secrets Manager 身份验证方法。

```
aws redshift-data describe-table  
    --cluster-identifier mycluster-test 
    --database dev 
    --schema information_schema 
    --table sql_features 
    --secret-arn arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:myuser-secret-hKgPWn
```

以下为响应示例。

```
{
    "ColumnList": [
        {
            "isCaseSensitive": false,
            "isCurrency": false,
            "isSigned": false,
            "length": 2147483647,
            "name": "feature_id",
            "nullable": 1,
            "precision": 2147483647,
            "scale": 0,
            "schemaName": "information_schema",
            "tableName": "sql_features",
            "typeName": "character_data"
        },
        {
            "isCaseSensitive": false,
            "isCurrency": false,
            "isSigned": false,
            "length": 2147483647,
            "name": "feature_name",
            "nullable": 1,
            "precision": 2147483647,
            "scale": 0,
            "schemaName": "information_schema",
            "tableName": "sql_features",
            "typeName": "character_data"
        }     
    ]
}
```

以下 AWS CLI 命令针对集群运行一个 SQL 语句来描述表。此示例使用临时凭证身份验证方法。

```
aws redshift-data describe-table 
    --db-user myuser 
    --cluster-identifier mycluster-test 
    --database dev 
    --schema information_schema 
    --table sql_features
```

以下为响应示例。

```
