To view all data in an HBase table, you can use either the HBase Shell command-line tool or the HBase REST API.<\/p>\n

Utilizing the HBase Shell command line tool:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the terminal and connect to the HBase Shell.<\/li>\n
  2. Use the scan command to view all the data in a table. For example, to view all the data in a table named “example_table”, you can use the following command:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    scan 'example_table'\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
      \n
    1. After executing the above command, all data in the table will be displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      Utilize the HBase REST API.<\/p>\n
        \n
      1. Use an HTTP GET request to retrieve all data from the table. For example, use the following command:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        curl -X GET http:\/\/<HBase\u4e3b\u673a>:<\u7aef\u53e3\u53f7>\/example_table\/*\/\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
