Indexes
You can retrieve information on indexes, such as the primary keys, by querying the Indexes collection.
Retrieving Primary Key Information
To retrieve this schema collection, call the GetSchema method of the AmazonS3Connection class. You can restrict the results by table name. The following example retrieves the primary key of the Amazon S3 table Buckets.
C#
String connectionString = "AWSAccessKey=a123;AWSSecretKey=s123;"; using (AmazonS3Connection conn = new AmazonS3Connection(connectionString)) { conn.Open(); DataTable databaseSchema = conn.GetSchema("Indexes", new string[] {"Buckets"}); foreach (DataRow row in databaseSchema.Rows) { Console.WriteLine(row["INDEX_NAME"]); Console.WriteLine(row["PRIMARY"]); } }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As String = "AWSAccessKey=a123;AWSSecretKey=s123;" Using conn As New AmazonS3Connection(connectionString) conn.Open() Dim databaseSchema As DataTable = conn.GetSchema("Indexes", New String() {"Buckets"}) For Each row As DataRow In databaseSchema.Rows Console.WriteLine(row("INDEX_NAME")) Console.WriteLine(row("PRIMARY")) Next End Using
