List databases in a cluster - Amazon Redshift
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Amazon Redshift will no longer support the creation of new Python UDFs starting November 1, 2025. If you would like to use Python UDFs, create the UDFs prior to that date. Existing Python UDFs will continue to function as normal. For more information, see the blog post .

aws redshift-data list-databases  

    --secret arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:myuser-secret-hKgPWn 
    --cluster-identifier mycluster-test 
    --database dev
