botot3 with sqs: the address 'QueueUrl' is not valid for this endpoint

Question

I am trying to the get queue url from a SQS queue. I have read about other posts Set the endpoint for boto3 SQS and boto3 sqs incorrect url when not specified endpoint url but it is still puzzling why the code is not working.

My region being us-east-1 and the endpoint seems to be the correct one https://queue.amazonaws.com/XXXXXXXXXXXX/MyMessages (legacy)

import json
import boto3

from datetime import datetime


def lambda_handler(event, context):

    now = datetime.now()
    current_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S %p")

    sqs = boto3.client('sqs', region_name="us-east-1")
    #get queue url using queue name
    queueurl = sqs.get_queue_url(QueueName='MyMessages')
    print(queueurl)
    
    for x in range(5):
        sqs.send_message(
            QueueUrl=str(queueurl),
            MessageBody=current_time
        )
    return {
        'statusCode': 200,
        'body': json.dumps(current_time)
    }

Answer 1

Response of sqs.get_queue_url is

{
    'QueueUrl': 'string'
}

So modifying like this will work.

    response = sqs.get_queue_url(QueueName='MyMessages')
    queueurl = response['QueueUrl']
