.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR Describe an existing Bigtable materialized view.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To get back information related to a view's schema (for example, description),
run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha bigtable materialized\-views describe \e
    my\-materialized\-view\-id \-\-instance=my\-instance\-id \-\-view=schema
.RE

or (because schema is the default view) simply:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha bigtable materialized\-views describe \e
    my\-materialized\-view\-id \-\-instance=my\-instance\-id
.RE

To get back information related to the view's replication state, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha bigtable materialized\-views describe \e
    my\-materialized\-view\-id \-\-instance=my\-instance\-id \e
    \-\-view=replication
.RE

To get back all information for the view, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha bigtable materialized\-views describe \e
