Error: dynamodb no range key value present
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
A DynamoDB primary key comprises a partition key and an optional sort key (range key). The partition key distributes data across multiple partitions, while the range key is used to sort the items within a partition. If you create a table with a range key, it is mandatory to provide a value for it whenever you update, create or delete an item from that error. Therefore, there are 2 major reasons for this error:
- When the inserted, updated, retrieved, or queried item does not contain a value for the range key.
- When the table has been created without a range key.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
Ensure that all the inserted, updated, retrieved, or queried items have a value for the range key.
