**To add a scheduled action to a DynamoDB table**

This example adds a scheduled action to a DynamoDB table called `TestTable` to scale out on a recurring schedule. On the specified schedule (every day at 12:15pm UTC), if the current capacity is below the value specified for MinCapacity, Application Auto Scaling scales out to the value specified by MinCapacity. 

Command::

  aws application-autoscaling put-scheduled-action --service-namespace dynamodb --scheduled-action-name my-recurring-action --schedule "cron(15 12 * * ? *)" --resource-id table/TestTable --scalable-dimension dynamodb:table:WriteCapacityUnits --scalable-target-action MinCapacity=6 

For more information, see `Scheduled Scaling`_ in the *Application Auto Scaling User Guide*.
