RedriveAllowPolicy error during Cloudformation deploy

Question

Hello there,  
  
I want to create a SQS queue that is defined in a Cloudformation template like this  
  
FooQueue:  
    Type: AWS::SQS::Queue  
    Properties:  
      RedriveAllowPolicy:  
        redrivePermission: denyAll  
  
which worked before for other queues (and should be working according to the docs?). However, for this one, I am now getting the error "extraneous key \[RedriveAllowPolicy] not permitted".   
  
Am I missing something, or did something get changed?  
  
Thanks in advance!

Hello,   
  
Thanks for reaching out.  
  
As the official cloudformation doc mentioned(https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-sqs-queues.html ), you need to provide a json property for `RedriveAllowPolicy`, follow is one sample:  
  
```  
AWSTemplateFormatVersion: 2010-09-09  
Description: A sample template  
Resources:  
  MyQueue:  
    Type: 'AWS::SQS::Queue'  
    Properties:  
      RedriveAllowPolicy: '{"redrivePermission":"denyAll"}'  
  
```  
Please let's know if you have any further questions,  
Regards,
