I'm new on DynamoDB and using NoSQL Workbench to learn. There is a new "Example" table in "Data modeler" section. I made a new LOCAL connection under "Operation builder" section to work on/test the "Example" table. Connection was created successfully and there was no error. But I can't see any table under Connection part. It says "No table found". I can't understand the problem. I think, I should see the "Example" table that is visible under "Data modeler" section. How can I see the table in Connection section?

The tool was working fine when I was using it with localstack 0.12.12 but then I had to upgrade to fix an issue with the default response to a put() and not it doesn't show anything. aws dynamo describe-table works – Sigex Aug 17 '21 at 20:11

As of Version 3.0 May 17th 2021 - macOS Big Sur
NoSQL Workbench is buggy.
I have worked through several different bugs in the system.
- You may have to completely close the application and restart it to get some items to show including the table or a new global secondary index
- There are some expanding selection menus that work on the second or third try.
- Toggle between menu items on the left.
- If you have selected a query and nothing is showing up, select another type like getitem and then re-select query to update the UI.
It seams there are a few bugs due to the screen not refreshing the UI at the appropriate times.
I've worked through the above items and now I can use the application, just have to work through the above recommendations from time to time.
This is a beta level application, but still a bit useful when entering into DynamoDB data modeling.
Even Rick Houlihan had some issues with it during his performance: Using the NoSQL Workbench to build a purchase order application on DynamoDB with Rick Houlihan

1Still true in Aug. 2023. It's like they don't care about the product. It's not even usable. – Tsar Bomba Aug 25 '23 at 18:59

You have to create the table and add items to it. You can add items to the table in the visualizer section, and then commit the items to DynamoDB.

Have you tried this recently? I’m only able to get it working with the models. When I try to commit data the rows do not get pushed but the model seems to do fine – Jens Bodal May 12 '22 at 16:49

For MySQL WorkBench to view, you can put the directory name as the same as the image to be uploaded
An example using localstack:
Create the following directory on your computer:
|
|docker
||
| localstack
| |
| |docker-compose.yml
|
docker-compose:
version: '3'
services:
localstack:
container_name: localstack
image: localstack/localstack
hostname: localstack
...
Navigate to directory with CMD:
cd docker/localstack
Run:
docker-compose up -d
Create new connection in NoSQL Workbench \ Operation Builder:
Connection name: localstack
Hostname: localstack
Port: 4566
