**Example 1: To create a table for a Kinesis data stream** 

The following ``create-table`` example creates a table in the AWS Glue Data Catalog that describes a Kinesis data stream. ::

    aws glue create-table \
        --database-name tempdb \
        --table-input  '{"Name":"test-kinesis-input", "StorageDescriptor":{ \
                "Columns":[ \
                    {"Name":"sensorid", "Type":"int"}, \
                    {"Name":"currenttemperature", "Type":"int"}, \
                    {"Name":"status", "Type":"string"}
                ], \
                "Location":"my-testing-stream", \
                "Parameters":{ \
                    "typeOfData":"kinesis","streamName":"my-testing-stream", \
                    "kinesisUrl":"https://kinesis.us-east-1.amazonaws.com" \
                }, \
                "SerdeInfo":{ \
                    "SerializationLibrary":"org.openx.data.jsonserde.JsonSerDe"} \
            }, \
            "Parameters":{ \
                "classification":"json"} \
            }' \
        --profile my-profile \
        --endpoint https://glue.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
