# POST /#Action=RestoreTableFromClusterSnapshot

`POST /#Action=RestoreTableFromClusterSnapshot`

Creates a new table from a table in an Amazon Redshift cluster snapshot. You must create the new table within the Amazon Redshift cluster that the snapshot was taken from.

You cannot use `RestoreTableFromClusterSnapshot` to restore a table with the same name as an existing table in an Amazon Redshift cluster. That is, you cannot overwrite an existing table in a cluster with a restored table. If you want to replace your original table with a new, restored table, then rename or drop your original table before you call `RestoreTableFromClusterSnapshot`. When you have renamed your original table, then you can pass the original name of the table as the `NewTableName` parameter value in the call to `RestoreTableFromClusterSnapshot`. This way, you can replace the original table with the table created from the snapshot.

You can't use this operation to restore tables with [interleaved sort keys](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/t_Sorting_data.html#t_Sorting_data-interleaved).
