Example Usage from GitHub
resource "aws_timestreamwrite_table" "silos_data_table" {
database_name = aws_timestreamwrite_database.timestream_db.database_name
table_name = var.table_name
retention_properties {
resource "aws_timestreamwrite_table" "example" {
database_name = aws_timestreamwrite_database.example.database_name
table_name = "sensorData2"
retention_properties {
magnetic_store_retention_period_in_days = 7
resource "aws_timestreamwrite_table" "sample" {
database_name = aws_timestreamwrite_database.sample.database_name
table_name = "SampleTable"
retention_properties {
magnetic_store_retention_period_in_days = 30

table_name = "redirects"
retention_properties {
magnetic_store_retention_period_in_days = 90
Parameters
The following arguments are supported:
database_name– (Required) The name of the Timestream database.retention_properties- (Optional) The retention duration for the memory store and magnetic store. See Retention Properties below for more details. If not provided,magnetic_store_retention_period_in_daysdefault to 73000 andmemory_store_retention_period_in_hoursdefaults to 6.table_name- (Required) The name of the Timestream table.tags- (Optional) Map of tags to assign to this resource. If configured with a providerdefault_tagsconfiguration block present, tags with matching keys will overwrite those defined at the provider-level.
Retention Properties
The retention_properties block supports the following arguments:
magnetic_store_retention_period_in_days- (Required) The duration for which data must be stored in the magnetic store. Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 73000.memory_store_retention_period_in_hours- (Required) The duration for which data must be stored in the memory store. Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 8766.
In addition to all arguments above, the following attributes are exported:
id- Thetable_nameanddatabase_nameseparated by a colon (:).arn- The ARN that uniquely identifies this table.tags_all- A map of tags assigned to the resource, including those inherited from the providerdefault_tagsconfiguration block.

Explanation in CloudFormation Registry
The CreateTable operation adds a new table to an existing database in your account. In an AWS account, table names must be at least unique within each Region if they are in the same database. You may have identical table names in the same Region if the tables are in separate databases. While creating the table, you must specify the table name, database name, and the retention properties. Service quotas apply. See code sample for details.
