# overlane operator tables

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Lists every table with its row count and, for each column, whether the operator read shows it, replaces it with a stable pseudonym, or masks it. Read-only; each call is recorded in the audit log. Only the Overlane staff team can call it.

## Usage

```sh
overlane operator tables [--service URL]
```

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--service` | string | no |  | The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project's binding, then the hosted service) |

## Examples

```sh
overlane operator tables
overlane operator tables --json
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `read` (changes nothing).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: no. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema operator tables`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
