Type annotations for boto3 IAM 1.43.70 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use boto3 IAM in a typed Python project. Install friction is negligible, maintenance is active, and there are no known vulnerabilities. The MIT license imposes no restrictions. PyCharm users should be aware of potential performance issues with Literal overloads (documented in the description) and may prefer types-boto3-lite as an alternative.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately in your environment.
- Low friction: pure Python type stubs with a single runtime dependency (typing-extensions).
- Released 2 days ago with active maintenance and 670 repository stars.

What it is and what it does
This package provides type stub annotations for boto3's IAM (Identity and Access Management) service, generated by mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0. It enables static type checking and IDE autocompletion when working with IAM clients, paginators, waiters, and resources, without requiring explicit type annotations in your code. The stubs work with mypy, pyright, VSCode (via Pylance), PyCharm, Emacs, Sublime Text, and other tools that support Python type hints.
The package is a pure-Python stub-only distribution with minimal dependencies—only typing-extensions at runtime. It's designed to be installed alongside boto3 and used during development and type checking, though it can be excluded from production deployments using TYPE_CHECKING guards. The stubs are kept in sync with boto3 1.43.70 and are actively maintained.
Use it for
- Enable mypy or pyright type checking in a project using boto3 IAM operations.
- Get IDE autocompletion and inline type hints for IAM client methods and parameters.
- Catch IAM API usage errors at type-check time rather than runtime.
- Document IAM service method signatures and return types in your codebase.
- Use in VSCode with Pylance for real-time type checking without explicit annotations.
