Which Category is your question related to?

I want to enable to DynamoDB Point In Time Recovery - but can't see where I should set this up in my Amplify project.

Amplify CLI Version

4.18.1

What AWS Services are you utilizing?

AppSync, DynamoDB, ElasticSearch

Provide additional details e.g. code snippets

I can see the api//build/stacks/

.json has a specification for enable Point In Time Recovery. I can't see where I can put this in as a default value so that all my tables have Point In Time Recovery enabled.

        "DynamoDBEnablePointInTimeRecovery": {
            "Type": "String",
            "Description": "Whether to enable Point in Time Recovery on the table",
            "Default": "false",
            "AllowedValues": [
                "true",
                "false"
            ]
        }

You can enable this by adding a new property called DynamoDBEnablePointInTimeRecovery and setting it to "true" in amplify/backend/api/<api-name>/parameters.json

{
    "AppSyncApiName": "<api-name>",
    "DynamoDBBillingMode": "PAY_PER_REQUEST",
    "DynamoDBEnableServerSideEncryption": "false",
    "DynamoDBEnablePointInTimeRecovery": "true"
}

Feel free to comment here if this does not resolve the issue
