Is it possible to specify Point In Time Recovery for an Amazon DynamoDB table created via CloudFormation? I've been looking through the docs and user guide and haven't found anything useful yet.

you can keep taking snapshot of DynamoDB; and get to a PIT recovery as and when needed.. Just like RDS – Deepak Singhal May 22 '18 at 15:17

2PITR is available via AWS UI. Specifically looking for how to specify this value in CloudFormation script – ethrbunny May 22 '18 at 15:19

2I don't think CloudFormation supports this feature yet. CloudFormation support for new features generally takes time. – krishna_mee2004 May 22 '18 at 15:21

@krishna_mee2004 - you're probably right. CLI doesn't support it yet either. – ethrbunny May 22 '18 at 15:31

This is now possible with cloud formation by adding a PointInTimeRecoverySpecification
to your cloud formation template.
Example:
Type: 'AWS::DynamoDB::Table'
Properties:
TableName: MyTable
PointInTimeRecoverySpecification:
PointInTimeRecoveryEnabled: true
...
