IotEvents action is missing from Iot CfnTopicRule ActionProperty

[nassahmed]

When creating an Iot CfnTopicRule, IotEvents is missing as an action property.
This action is declared in cloudformation documentation ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-iot-topicrule-action.html ) and in cdk documentation https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-iot.CfnTopicRule.html .

Reproduction Steps

Create an iot CfnTopicRule with an IotEvent as an action.

Error Log

Type '{ iotEvents: {}; }' is not assignable to type 'IResolvable | ActionProperty'.
Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'iotEvents' does not exist in type 'IResolvable | ActionProperty'.

Environment

• CLI Version :
• Framework Version: 1.32.0
• OS : WSL (Ubuntu)
• Language : Typescript

@nassahmed can you share some code? - the iotEvents action is modeled as an action property

[nassahmed]

I have seen that its referenced in the documentation but i also saw that its missing inside the node_modules files.

Its probably because of how recent IotEvent is.

    const nctLiveRule = new iot.CfnTopicRule(this, "nctLiveRule", {
      topicRulePayload: {
        actions: [
          {
            kinesis: {
              streamName:
                props.nctLivePositionStream.name || "nctLivePositionStream",
              roleArn: nctLiveRuleRole.roleArn,
              partitionKey: "${newuuid()}",
            },
          },
          {
            iotEvents: {}, // Here is where the error occurs
          },
        ],
        sql: "SELECT * FROM '$aws/rules/nct'",
        ruleDisabled: false,
      },
      ruleName: "nct",
    });

@nassahmed are you certain you're on 1.32.0 in your package.json?
It was added recently in #7113

[nassahmed]

After deleting the node_modules and runing an npm update it seems the issue was solved. I looked at the changelog but didnt notice Cloudformation line.
Sorry for this.
