athena_start_query_execution: Runs the SQL query statements contained in the Query

Description

Runs the SQL query statements contained in the Query. Requires you to have access to the workgroup in which the query ran.

Usage

athena_start_query_execution(QueryString, ClientRequestToken,
  QueryExecutionContext, ResultConfiguration, WorkGroup)

Arguments

QueryString

[required] The SQL query statements to be executed.

ClientRequestToken

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.

QueryExecutionContext

The database within which the query executes.

ResultConfiguration

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.

WorkGroup

The name of the workgroup in which the query is being started.

Request syntax

svc$start_query_execution(
  QueryString = "string",
  ClientRequestToken = "string",
  QueryExecutionContext = list(
    Database = "string"
  ),
  ResultConfiguration = list(
    OutputLocation = "string",
    EncryptionConfiguration = list(
      EncryptionOption = "SSE_S3"|"SSE_KMS"|"CSE_KMS",
      KmsKey = "string"
    )
  ),
  WorkGroup = "string"
)
