Solved: Ok so apparently what is going on is that my function in AWS lambda is using python 3.10 runtime which for the start_file_transfer() method only allows the 2 parameters: ConnectorId, SendFilePaths under the boto3 version in python 3.10. So the solution is to create a new function running python 3.12 which will contain the latest boto3 version.
Hi,
From the boto3 doc, the parameter is required:SendFilePaths
https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/transfer/client/start_file_transfer.html
Request Syntax: response = client.start_file_transfer( ConnectorId='string', SendFilePaths=[ 'string', ], RetrieveFilePaths=[ 'string', ], LocalDirectoryPath='string', RemoteDirectoryPath='string' )
So you need to check the method parameter, but if it can run successfully on your local env, you need to check the boto3's version and Python version.
The Lambda runtime and boto3 versions you can refer to this doc:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/lambda-runtimes.html
Hi, I'm trying to implement the same. Transfer file from remote sftp server to S3. Created a lambda (python version 3.12) for start_file_transfer and I get the following error in the connector logs: "failure-code": "RETRIEVE_FILE_NOT_FOUND", "failure-message": "SFTP error (SSH_FX_NO_SUCH_FILE): File does not exist.",
Can someone help me how to resolve this error. Thanks!
Have you checked if the file you are trying to pull from your remote sftp server exists or perhaps in the parameter of the start_file_transfer method the name of the file being passed is wrong. For example, "name_of_file.txt" instead of "name_of_file" or vice versa.

Hi, i am running in python3.10 runtime in AWS lambda. Does it mean that start_file_transfer() method in python3.10 does not support SFTP connector parameters? I am able to input parameters "RetrieveFilePaths" and "LocalDirectoryPath" in vscode runnning python 3.12 but not in AWS lambda runnning python 3.10 runtime.
