Error on get_group_id for identitystore client

[orsifacundo]

Describe the bug

When using the get_group_id function for the identitystore client there is no way I can make it work and always gives me a ClientError

According to the documentation the following syntax is expected:

response = client.get_group_id(
    IdentityStoreId='string',
    AlternateIdentifier={
        'ExternalId': {
            'Issuer': 'string',
            'Id': 'string'
        },
        'UniqueAttribute': {
            'AttributePath': 'string',
            'AttributeValue': {...}|[...]|123|123.4|'string'|True|None
        }
    }
)

So either UniqueAttribute or ExternalId is ti be used for AlternateIdentifier.

Expected Behavior

Obtain the GroupId:

{
'GroupId': 'string',
'IdentityStoreId': 'string'
}

Current Behavior

getting the error:

{
  "errorMessage": "An error occurred (UnknownOperationException) when calling the GetGroupId operation: ",
  "errorType": "ClientError",
  "requestId": "f3d824a4-d34c-461a-8d3f-xxxxxxxxxxx",
  "stackTrace": [
    "  File \"/var/task/index.py\", line 299, in lambda_handler\n    test()\n",
    "  File \"/var/task/index.py\", line 280, in test\n    result=client.get_group_id(\n",
    "  File \"/var/runtime/botocore/client.py\", line 530, in _api_call\n    return self._make_api_call(operation_name, kwargs)\n",
    "  File \"/var/runtime/botocore/client.py\", line 960, in _make_api_call\n    raise error_class(parsed_response, operation_name)\n"
  ]
}

Reproduction Steps

Using the following code:

    client = boto3.client('identitystore')
    
    result=client.get_group_id(
        IdentityStoreId="d-xxxxxxxxxx",
        AlternateIdentifier={
            'UniqueAttribute': {
                'AttributePath': 'displayName',
                'AttributeValue': 'GROUP_NAME'
            }
        }
        )
        
    print(result)

Hi @orsifacundo thanks for reaching out. Please refer to this troubleshooting guide for Boto3 issues on Lambda: https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/lambda-python-runtime-errors

I can confirm that the following snippet is working on Boto3 1.28.11:

import boto3

client = boto3.client('identitystore')

result = client.get_group_id(
    IdentityStoreId="d-xxxxxxxxxxx",
    AlternateIdentifier={
        'UniqueAttribute': {
            'AttributePath': 'displayName',
            'AttributeValue': 'test-group'
        }
    }
)

Per the troubleshooting guided linked above, you may need to install a Lambda layer in order to use the latest version of Boto3. (For a list of recent versions you can refer to the CHANGELOG).

To verify your Boto3/Botocore versions you can use the following snippet:

import boto3
import botocore
print(boto3.__version__)
print(botocore.__version__)

Additionally you can adding boto3.set_stream_logger('') to your script to view your debug logs which should provide more insight into the issue. If you're still encountering this issue after following the steps above, please share those logs (with any sensitive info redacted) for us to investigate further.

Hi Tim, yeah it totally worked adding a layer with the latest boto3 (1.28.18). Thanks.
