TYPE to find out which data type is stored at a key.
The reply is one of string, list, set, zset, hash, or stream, and none when the key does not exist. It is the way to dispatch generic code over keys of mixed types, since applying a command to the wrong type fails with a WRONGTYPE error, and the way to inspect unfamiliar data before deciding how to read it.
Syntax
Arguments
Response
The reply reports the result of the operation. Error replies have the same shape in RESP2 and RESP3 and are surfaced as exceptions by the SDKs below.Client libraries often decode bulk strings, maps, sets, and numeric strings into language-native values. The table describes the Redis wire reply.
Examples
TCP examples use the TLSREDIS_URL from the Upstash console. REST examples use UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL and UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN.
