Type annotations for boto3 Support 1.43.28 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. This is a low-friction, actively maintained type stub package with no known vulnerabilities and a permissive MIT license. Install it if you use boto3 Support and want IDE autocompletion or static type checking. The single dependency (typing-extensions) is widely available. Note that PyCharm users may experience performance issues with Literal overloads (documented in the package); consider boto3-stubs-lite as an alternative if that occurs.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires boto3 1.43.28 to be installed separately; type checking requires mypy, pyright, or a compatible IDE with type-aware language server.
- Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions).
- Actively maintained as of 2026-06-22 with 670 repository stars, supporting Python 3.9 through 3.14.

What it is and what it does
This package is a type stub library that adds complete type annotations for the AWS boto3 Support service. It is generated automatically from boto3 1.43.28 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and works with mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, and other type-aware development tools.
When installed, it enables static type checking and IDE autocompletion for boto3 Support client calls without requiring explicit type annotations in your code. The package is designed to be used alongside boto3 itself and depends only on typing-extensions. It is classified as stubs-only and carries no runtime behavior beyond providing type information to checkers and IDEs.
Use it for
- Enable IDE autocompletion and type hints when writing boto3 Support service code in VSCode with Pylance or PyCharm.
- Catch type errors in boto3 Support API calls during development using mypy or pyright before runtime.
- Provide explicit type annotations for SupportClient, paginators, and service resources in large codebases.
- Support Emacs or Sublime Text development workflows with LSP-based type checking via pyright.
- Avoid production dependencies by importing stubs only within TYPE_CHECKING blocks while maintaining type safety.
