Intermittent Issue with DeleteMediaCapturePipelineCommand: "Unable to find the requested identifier"

Question

We are currently implementing the CreateMediaCapturePipelineCommand to start capturing audio and video streams, which provides us with a MediaPipelineId. We subsequently use this ID to stop the capture using the DeleteMediaCapturePipelineCommand.

However, we occasionally encounter an issue where the DeleteMediaCapturePipelineCommand responds with "Unable to find the requested identifier". This error does not occur consistently but appears sporadically.

Could you please help us understand why this error might be occurring intermittently? Any guidance on how to ensure consistent behavior when stopping the media capture would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Answer

Hello,

Geovanni here from AWS Premium Support.

I understand you observe intermittent issues when using DeleteMediaCapturePipelineCommand.

Checking documentation, I've seen in multiple places [1][2] that `DeleteMediaCapturePipelineCommand` is no longer supported and does not receive internal updates. Instead we request you use the command from the Chime SDK `DeleteMediaCapturePipeline` [3]. When developing this code base, be sure to include some retry logic in expectation that temporary errors might cause failures.
