types-aiobotocore-lambda
Type annotations for aiobotocore Lambda 3.9.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. This is a zero-friction, actively maintained type stub package with no known vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and broad IDE/checker support. Install it if you use aiobotocore's Lambda service and want static type checking or IDE completion; it is purely a development aid and can be excluded from production builds.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires aiobotocore 3.9.0 to be installed separately; types-aiobotocore-lambda is stubs-only and does not provide runtime functionality.
- Low friction: single runtime dependency (typing-extensions), wheel-only distribution, and actively maintained with a recent release.
- Marked Production/Stable and supports Python 3.9 through 3.14.

What it is and what it does
types-aiobotocore-lambda is a type stub package that adds static type annotations to aiobotocore's Lambda service client. It is generated from aiobotocore 3.9.0 using mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and provides type hints for client methods, paginators, waiters, and service resource types. When installed, it enables IDEs and type checkers to validate your async AWS Lambda code without requiring explicit type annotations in your source.
The package works by providing `.pyi` stub files that describe the shape of aiobotocore's Lambda API. Once installed in your environment, mypy, pyright, VSCode Pylance, PyCharm, and other tools automatically use these stubs to offer code completion and catch type errors. It is designed as a development-only dependency and can be safely excluded from production using TYPE_CHECKING guards.
Use it for
- Enable IDE autocompletion and type checking when writing async Lambda client code with aiobotocore.
- Catch type errors in Lambda API calls (invoke, create_function, update_function_code) before runtime.
- Provide explicit type annotations for LambdaClient, paginators, and waiters in mypy or pyright CI pipelines.
- Support code navigation and refactoring in PyCharm or VSCode by resolving Lambda service method signatures.
- Validate paginator and waiter usage patterns without manual type annotations.
