For information about maintenance and support for SDK major versions and their underlying dependencies, see thefollowing in the AWS SDKs and Tools Shared Configuration and Credentials Reference Guide:

• AWS SDKs and Tools Maintenance Policy
• AWS SDKs and Tools Version Support Matrix

The v2 SDK follows the upstreamrelease policywith an additional six months of support for the most recently deprecatedlanguage version.

AWS reserves the right to drop support for unsupported Go versions earlier toaddress critical security issues.

To get started working with the SDK setup your project for Go modules, and retrieve the SDK dependencies withgo get.This example shows how you can use the v2 SDK to make an API request using the SDK'sAmazon DynamoDB client.

$ mkdir~/helloaws$cd~/helloaws$ go mod init helloaws

$ go get github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/aws$ go get github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config$ go get github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/dynamodb

In your preferred editor add the following content tomain.go

package mainimport ("context""fmt""log""github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/aws""github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config""github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/dynamodb")funcmain() {// Using the SDK's default configuration, load additional config// and credentials values from the environment variables, shared// credentials, and shared configuration filescfg,err:=config.LoadDefaultConfig(context.TODO(),config.WithRegion("us-west-2"))iferr!=nil {log.Fatalf("unable to load SDK config, %v",err)    }// Using the Config value, create the DynamoDB clientsvc:=dynamodb.NewFromConfig(cfg)// Build the request with its input parametersresp,err:=svc.ListTables(context.TODO(),&dynamodb.ListTablesInput{Limit:aws.Int32(5),    })iferr!=nil {log.Fatalf("failed to list tables, %v",err)    }fmt.Println("Tables:")for_,tableName:=rangeresp.TableNames {fmt.Println(tableName)    }}

$ go run.Tables:tableOnetableTwo
