SecurityIncidentResponseClient
✓ from mypy_boto3_security_ir.client import SecurityIncidentResponseClient
✗ from mypy_boto3_security_ir import SecurityIncidentResponseClient
Client types are nested under the 'client' submodule.
SecurityIncidentResponseServiceName
✓ from mypy_boto3_security_ir.type_defs import SecurityIncidentResponseServiceName
✗ import mypy_boto3_security_ir.type_defs
Service names and TypeDefs are commonly imported directly from their respective submodules for clarity and type hinting.
ListIncidentRecordsOutputTypeDef
✓ from mypy_boto3_security_ir.type_defs import ListIncidentRecordsOutputTypeDef
✗ from mypy_boto3_security_ir.client import ListIncidentRecordsOutputTypeDef
Request and response TypeDefs reside in the 'type_defs' submodule, not 'client'.
This quickstart demonstrates how to initialize a `boto3` client for AWS Security Incident Response and type-hint it using `mypy-boto3-security-ir`. It then calls `list_incident_records` with its return type hinted. For actual usage, ensure valid AWS credentials and region are configured.
import boto3
from mypy_boto3_security_ir.client import SecurityIncidentResponseClient
from mypy_boto3_security_ir.type_defs import ListIncidentRecordsOutputTypeDef
import os
# Ensure boto3 is configured, e.g., via environment variables or ~/.aws/credentials
# For demonstration, we'll use a dummy client, but in real-world, provide credentials.
# Boto3 client initialization with type hint
client: SecurityIncidentResponseClient = boto3.client(
"security-incident-response",
region_name=os.environ.get('AWS_REGION', 'us-east-1'),
aws_access_key_id=os.environ.get('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID', 'dummy'),
aws_secret_access_key=os.environ.get('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY', 'dummy'),
)
# Call a method and type hint its output
try:
response: ListIncidentRecordsOutputTypeDef = client.list_incident_records()
print("Successfully listed incident records (or empty list if none):", response.get('incidentRecords'))
except Exception as e:
print(f"An error occurred: {e}")
print("Please ensure your AWS credentials and region are correctly configured and you have permissions.")

Known issues
breakingPython 3.8 support has been removed since `mypy-boto3-builder` version 8.12.0. All generated stubs, including `mypy-boto3-security-ir`, now require Python 3.9 or newer.fixUpgrade your Python environment to 3.9 or higher. If you need Python 3.8 support, pin `mypy-boto3-builder` to an earlier version (e.g., `<8.12.0`) and regenerate/use older stub versions if available.
affects: >=8.12.0 of mypy-boto3-builder (corresponds to mypy-boto3-security-ir ~1.42.0)
breakingAll `mypy-boto3` packages migrated to PEP 561 packaging (namespace packages) in `mypy-boto3-builder` 8.12.0. This change affects how MyPy might locate packages, especially in complex project structures.fixEnsure your `sys.path` and MyPy configuration (`mypy.ini` or `pyproject.toml`) correctly resolve namespace packages. Typically, installing via pip handles this, but custom setups might need adjustment. Verify MyPy can find the stubs by running it after the update.
affects: >=8.12.0 of mypy-boto3-builder (corresponds to mypy-boto3-security-ir ~1.42.0)
gotcha`mypy-boto3-security-ir` provides *only* type stubs. For runtime functionality, the `boto3` library itself must be installed alongside the stub package.fixAlways install `boto3` in addition to `mypy-boto3-security-ir` using `pip install boto3 mypy-boto3-security-ir`.
affects: All versions
gotchaThe service name passed to `boto3.client()` must exactly match the expected string, which is `'security-incident-response'` for this service. Mismatches will result in runtime errors from `boto3` and potentially incorrect type hints if a different stub package is inadvertently used.fixAlways use `boto3.client("security-incident-response")` when interacting with the Security Incident Response service. affects: All versions
breakingTypeDef naming conventions changed in `mypy-boto3-builder` 8.9.0. Specifically, `RequestRequestTypeDef` was shortened to `RequestTypeDef`, and `ExtraRequestTypeDef` became `RequestExtraTypeDef`. If you directly import or refer to these generated TypeDef names, your code might break.fixReview your code for direct imports or references to generated TypeDef names and update them according to the new naming conventions. Consult the `mypy-boto3-security-ir` source for the exact TypeDef names.
affects: >=8.9.0 of mypy-boto3-builder (corresponds to mypy-boto3-security-ir ~1.39.0)
