transact_get_items(
transact_items: TransactGetItemList,
*,
config_overrides: Optional[AsyncDynamoDBClientConfig] = None,
return_consumed_capacity: Optional[ReturnConsumedCapacity] = None,
) -> TransactGetItemsOutput
TransactGetItems is a synchronous operation that atomically retrieves multiple items from one or more tables (but not from indexes) in a single account and Region. A TransactGetItems call can contain up to 100 TransactGetItem objects, each of which contains a Get structure that specifies an item to retrieve from a table in the account and Region. A call to TransactGetItems cannot retrieve items from tables in more than one Amazon Web Services account or Region. The aggregate size of the items in the transaction cannot exceed 4 MB.
DynamoDB rejects the entire TransactGetItems request if any of the following is true:
-
A conflicting operation is in the process of updating an item to be read.
-
There is insufficient provisioned capacity for the transaction to be completed.
-
There is a user error, such as an invalid data format.
-
The aggregate size of the items in the transaction exceeded 4 MB.
Parameters:
-
transact_items(TransactGetItemList) –An ordered array of up to 100
TransactGetItemobjects, each of which contains aGetstructure. -
return_consumed_capacity(Optional[ReturnConsumedCapacity], default:None) –A value of
TOTALcauses consumed capacity information to be returned, and a value ofNONEprevents that information from being returned. No other value is valid.
Raises:
-
InternalServerError–An error occurred on the server side.
-
ProvisionedThroughputExceededException–The request was denied due to request throttling. For detailed information about why the request was throttled and the ARN of the impacted resource, find the ThrottlingReason field in the returned exception. The Amazon Web Services SDKs for DynamoDB automatically retry requests that receive this exception. Your request is eventually successful, unless your retry queue is too large to finish. Reduce the frequency of requests and use exponential backoff. For more information, go to Error Retries and Exponential Backoff in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
-
RequestLimitExceeded–Throughput exceeds the current throughput quota for your account. For detailed information about why the request was throttled and the ARN of the impacted resource, find the ThrottlingReason field in the returned exception. Contact Amazon Web Services Support to request a quota increase.
-
ResourceNotFoundException–The operation tried to access a nonexistent table or index. The resource might not be specified correctly, or its status might not be
ACTIVE. -
ThrottlingException–The request was denied due to request throttling. For detailed information about why the request was throttled and the ARN of the impacted resource, find the ThrottlingReason field in the returned exception.
-
TransactionCanceledException–The entire transaction request was canceled.
DynamoDB cancels a
TransactWriteItemsrequest under the following circumstances:-
A condition in one of the condition expressions is not met.
-
A table in the
TransactWriteItemsrequest is in a different account or region. -
More than one action in the
TransactWriteItemsoperation targets the same item. -
There is insufficient provisioned capacity for the transaction to be completed.
-
An item size becomes too large (larger than 400 KB), or a local secondary index (LSI) becomes too large, or a similar validation error occurs because of changes made by the transaction.
-
There is a user error, such as an invalid data format.
-
There is an ongoing
TransactWriteItemsoperation that conflicts with a concurrentTransactWriteItemsrequest. In this case theTransactWriteItemsoperation fails with aTransactionCanceledException.
DynamoDB cancels a
TransactGetItemsrequest under the following circumstances:-
There is an ongoing
TransactGetItemsoperation that conflicts with a concurrentPutItem,UpdateItem,DeleteItemorTransactWriteItemsrequest. In this case theTransactGetItemsoperation fails with aTransactionCanceledException. -
A table in the
TransactGetItemsrequest is in a different account or region. -
There is insufficient provisioned capacity for the transaction to be completed.
-
There is a user error, such as an invalid data format.
DynamoDB lists the cancellation reasons on the
CancellationReasonsproperty. Transaction cancellation reasons are ordered in the order of requested items, if an item has no error it will haveNonecode andNullmessage. TheNonecode is returned as the literal string"None", not a null or absent value; the message field is omitted entirely for an item that has no error. This is important to note when using an SDK that surfaces the code as an optional or nullable type.Cancellation reason codes and possible error messages:

Messages:
-
The level of configured provisioned throughput for the table was exceeded. Consider increasing your provisioning level with the UpdateTable API.
This Message is received when provisioned throughput is exceeded is on a provisioned DynamoDB table.
-
The level of configured provisioned throughput for one or more global secondary indexes of the table was exceeded. Consider increasing your provisioning level for the under-provisioned global secondary indexes with the UpdateTable API.
This message is returned when provisioned throughput is exceeded is on a provisioned GSI.

Throttling Error:
-
Code:

Messages:
-
Throughput exceeds the current capacity of your table or index. DynamoDB is automatically scaling your table or index so please try again shortly. If exceptions persist, check if you have a hot key: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/bp-partition-key-design.html.
This message is returned when writes get throttled on an On-Demand table as DynamoDB is automatically scaling the table.
