Does declaring a GraphQL type using @model directive now create AmplifyDataStore DynamoDB tables? I know they are used for "Delta Sync" feature of DataStore, but I'm not currently using DataStore and I don't remember seeing those tables before.

You're right, I've just seen these tables appearing tonight ouf of nowhere while I am ont using Datastore either!

Hi @ernestostifano and @eripoll, this is definitely a bug on the Amplify CLI side the workaround would be to edit the file amplify/backend/api/<API_NAME>/transform.conf.json

{
    "Version": 5,
    "ElasticsearchWarning": true,
    "ResolverConfig": {}
}

to

{
    "Version": 5,
    "ElasticsearchWarning": true
}

and invoke command amplify push

@ernestostifano This issue is fixed in the latest version of the CLI
