Python Lambda instrumentation fails with error :Unable to import module 'aws_observability': cannot import name 'AwsXRayIdsGenerator' about aws-otel-lambda HOT 3 CLOSED

I'm running Python 3.8 by the way

from aws-otel-lambda.

@CeeBeeCee I've faced this issue too. The problem is present because aws_observability dependencies are set to latest. Problem occurs because OpenTelemetry Python community released new version where AwsXRayIdsGenerator was changed to AwsXRayIdGenerator. If you fix that you are going to face much more issues related to name changes in the OT Python main stream.

@mat-rumian : Ah, I see that now. Thanks! I'll wait for the AWS folks to refactor their sample code and their instrumentation script.

class AwsXRayIdGenerator(IdGenerator):
"""Generates tracing IDs compatible with the AWS X-Ray tracing service. In
the X-Ray system, the first 32 bits of the TraceId are the Unix epoch time
in seconds. Since spans (AWS calls them segments) with an embedded timestamp
more than 30 days ago are rejected, a purely random TraceId risks being
rejected by the service.
