[URGENT] AWS SSO Failing with botocore.exceptions.ClientError: An error occurred (InternalServerException) when calling the GetRoleCredentials operation (reached max retries: 4): internal error

1

Hello,

Starting in recent hour today we cannot login using SSO from external (standalone) applications, we have done no change in our side.

The AWS management console works, however, 3rd party desktop applications are not working, this is across the board issue.

I try to manually trigger SSO with a test program, I get the exception: botocore.exceptions.ClientError:

An error occurred (InternalServerException) when calling the GetRoleCredentials operation (reached max retries: 4): internal error

The sequence is based on the AWS examples available and provided below, it worked perfectly until recent hours.

Does anyone experience the same? What is the right channel to provide the information to AWS?

Regards,
Alon

Me and a co-worker has same error when using: aws sts assume-role command ;/ We can't log in since this morning. We didn't change anything so it looks definitely like AWS InternalServerException
