DESCRIBE can be abbreviated to DESC.

Syntax¶

DESC[RIBE] DYNAMIC TABLE <name>

Copy

name: Specifies the identifier for the dynamic table to describe. If the identifier contains spaces or special characters, the entire string must be enclosed in double quotes. Identifiers enclosed in double quotes are also case-sensitive.

To DESCRIBE a dynamic table, you must be using a role that has MONITOR privilege on the table.

To post-process the output of this command, you can use the RESULT_SCAN function, which treats the output as a table that can be queried.
