response_iterator = paginator.paginate(
    CatalogId='string',
    ResourceShareType='FOREIGN'|'ALL'|'FEDERATED',

    ],
    PaginationConfig={
        'MaxItems': 123,
        'PageSize': 123,
        'StartingToken': 'string'
    }
)

Parameters:

• CatalogId (string) – The ID of the Data Catalog from which to retrieve Databases. If none is provided, the Amazon Web Services account ID is used by default.

• ResourceShareType (string) –

  • PageSize (integer) –

    The size of each page.

  • StartingToken (string) –
