AWSIoTPythonSDK.exception.AWSIoTExceptions.connectTimeoutException

Are you getting the below error when sening data to IoT Core using the "AWSIoTPythonSDK." ?


Here is my error :


  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/AWSIoTPythonSDK/MQTTLib.py", line 520, in connect
    return self._mqtt_core.connect(keepAliveIntervalSecond)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/AWSIoTPythonSDK/core/protocol/mqtt_core.py", line 199, in connect
    raise connectTimeoutException()
AWSIoTPythonSDK.exception.AWSIoTExceptions.connectTimeoutException


The below can be reason for  this issue


1- You have not defined policy to allow the sending message to the IoT Core topic. If that is the case create a policy for the "Thing"


You need to define

  Publish/Subscribe policy 

Connect and Publish Policy

 

If the policies are defined than check the active version of policy, In my case old policy was active

 

2- Make the latest one active  

 Check this  under your "Thing" policy settings:

 


 

 Hopefully one of it works. Leave comment if it does help

Thanks
