sqs create_queue returns Queue not dictionary

[mdavis-xyz]

Describe the issue

Steps to reproduce

import boto3

client = boto3.resource('sqs')
response = client.create_queue(
    QueueName='myqueuetest.fifo',
    Attributes={
        'FifoQueue': 'true'
    },
)
queue_url = response['QueueUrl']
assert isinstance(queue_url, str)
queue = client.Queue(queue_url)

Expected behavior

• assertions pass
• create_queue returns a dictionary: {'QueueUrl': 'https://...'}

actual behavior

• assertion fails
• create_queue returns an sqs.Queue object

Commentary

Returning a sqs.Queue object is more convenient than returning a dictionary.

But the documentation should reflect this. Currently it says the function returns a dictionary.

Return type: dict

from what I understand, by calling `boto3.resource('sqs'), you're getting this api: https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/sqs/service-resource/create_queue.html#SQS.ServiceResource.create_queue

And the doc you're linking corresponds to the client you would get by calling boto3.client('sqs')

It is indeed an issue, looks like botocore version 1.31.81 is broke which was released on Nov 8,2023. I hard coded boto version to 1.28.80 and botocore version to 1.31.80 and it worked fine.

@mdavis-xyz as mentioned in #3929 (comment) it does appear that you're using the create_queue resource command which does document that a Queue object is returned.

@vedimuthan can you share your QueueUrl format and debug logs for further review? (You can get those by adding boto3.set_stream_logger('') to your script - please redact any sensitive info). There were some recent SQS changes in botocore but I'm not sure if that could have impacted your code.

Ah wow. Yep I was being stupid. I created a service resource but then assigned it to a variable named client. So I thought I was calling the client's API not the service one. My bad
