COMMAND GETKEYS

Available since 2.8.13.

Time complexity: O(N) where N is the number of arguments to the command

Returns Array reply of keys from a full Redis command.

COMMAND GETKEYS is a helper command to let you find the keys from a full Redis command.

COMMAND shows some commands as having movablekeys meaning the entire command must be parsed to discover storage or retrieval keys. You can use COMMAND GETKEYS to discover key positions directly from how Redis parses the commands.

*Return value

Array reply: list of keys from your command.
