Nodejs Sdk - How to resolve connect.describeContact is not a function?

Question

I am trying to make a call to `describeContact` operation using the `AWSJavaScriptSDK`. I am following the [documentation][1] but somehow the call is not working. Below is my code.

const params = {
      ContactId: 'some_value', 
      InstanceId: 'some_value'
    };
    
    const attributes = await connect.describeContact(params).promise();

I receive -

connect.describeContact is not a function

Interestingly, when I replace `describeContact` with `getContactAttributes` in the call, I no longer receive "not a function" error and it works just fine (after I change the params). Both the operations have exactly the same signature.

Can someone please guide me here ?  
Connect api version = 2017-08-08

Upgrading to the latest version of aws-sdk didn't help either.

Answer

Hi,

there error can indicate two things:

1. There is a invisible character since it errors with connect.describe and not connect.describeContact
2. Most likely - You need to update your aws-sdk dependency. describeContact() is a preview one and may not included in the SDK version you currently use.
