Error: dynamodb index not updated
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
There are several potential causes for this issue:
- The index or the table is in a creating or deleting state.
- The table has reached its provisioned throughput limits.
- The item size exceeds the item collection size limit. DynamoDB does not index item collections if it exceeds the size limit of 10 GB.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
You can resolve this error by following the below steps.
- Make sure the table or the index creation process is completed.
- Reduce the item sizes not to exceed 10 GB.
- Verify the code is correct.
- Make sure the table is not throttled.
If the error still exists after those steps, check the Cloudwatch logs for more insights.
