.show table policy sharding command
Show the table sharding policy. Use the sharding policy to manage data sharding for databases and tables.
The sharding policy defines if and how Extents (data shards) in your cluster should be sealed. When a database is created, it contains the default data sharding policy. This policy is inherited by all tables created in the database (unless the policy is explicitly overridden at the table level).
Permissions
You must have at least Database User, Database Viewer, or Database Monitor permissions to run these commands. For more information, see role-based access control.
