Websockets connection to AWS IOT

Question

I am unable to connect using websockets to AWS IOT. It gives error of 426 or websockets connection failed. I have tried all python libraries.

Answer

Hello suleman! Have you taken a look at the ~~aws-iot-device-sdk-python~~ SDK? In it's README, it shows how to setup an MQTT client to connect to AWS IoT Core over Websockets. The big thing to be aware of is that Websocket connections require a different way of authenticating - which is explained well in the README.

Update: Use the aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2 SDK instead

Hi Suleman,

to use Websockets with AWS IoT we strongly advice to use the off-the-shelf AWS IoT device sdk libraries [aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2](https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/tree/main). With those libraries you do not need to work at the socket level as you have done in the code snippet you provided.

In the example folder you also find a complete implementation for using websockets. https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/blob/main/samples/websocket_connect.py and the associated [README](https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-python-v2/blob/main/samples/websocket_connect.md)
