DyanmoDb is storing value 1 instead of boolean value true

Question

I have a method which is simply storing flag value true for a particular record. My flag attribute has been defined as Boolean which has value true/false in my DynamoDB database

Answer 1

That's expected, have a look at the datatypes docs for dynamodb: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DynamoDBMapper.DataTypes.html

The Java type of Boolean will be stored as a number type in dynamodb, 0 or 1. Alternatively, you can use @DynamoDBNativeBooleanType to map a Java Boolean to the DynamoDB BOOL data type
