aws.cognito_sync.describe_dataset

Example SQL Queries

SELECT * FROM
aws.cognito_sync.describe_dataset
WHERE
"identity_pool_id" = 'VALUE'
AND "identity_id" = 'VALUE'
AND "dataset_name" = 'VALUE';

Description

Gets meta data about a dataset by identity and dataset name. With Amazon Cognito Sync, each identity has access only to its own data. Thus, the credentials used to make this API call need to have access to the identity data.

This API can be called with temporary user credentials provided by Cognito Identity or with developer credentials. You should use Cognito Identity credentials to make this API call.
