(aws-iot-actions-alpha): (IotRepublishMqttAction does not allow 'role' in props)

[dmeehan1968]

Describe the bug

The implementation allows for the instance to carry a role, but the role attribute is not on the IotRepublishMqttActionProps.

Expected Behavior

Role should be permitted on the props

Current Behavior

Role cannot be specified, unless a type cast is used

Reproduction Steps

const myRole = new Role(this, 'role', { assumedBy: new ServicePrincipal('iot.amazonaws.com' })
new IotRepublishMqttAction('errors', { role: myRole })

Possible Solution

Update types

I can use the following lines without any error messages.

const myRole = new Role(this, 'role', { assumedBy: new ServicePrincipal('iot.amazonaws.com') })
new IotRepublishMqttAction('errors', { role: myRole })

Can you please show / compare your imports and package.json file?

I am using these imports:

import { Role, ServicePrincipal } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-iam';
import { IotRepublishMqttAction } from '@aws-cdk/aws-iot-actions-alpha';

My package.json:

"dependencies": {
  "@aws-cdk/aws-iot-actions-alpha": "^2.87.0-alpha.0",
  "aws-cdk-lib": "2.87.0",
  "constructs": "^10.2.69",
  "source-map-support": "^0.5.21"
}

Maybe you are using import @aws-cdk/aws-iot-actions from CDK v1. You need to use @aws-cdk/aws-iot-actions-alpha for CDK v2.

Yes, that is working for me now. Either I was mistyping (seems odd for a 4 letter word) or my IDE was hinting that there was a problem when in fact it wasn't.

I looked at the source, but overlooked that IotRepublishMqttActionProps extends CommonActionProps which is what provides the access.

Apologies.
