In Amazon Connect, I create a Flow with Start Streaming Data block. I have verified that calls trigger live audio streams through Kinesis Video Streams. See the ARNs below (captured by calling AWS CLI command aws resourcegroupstaggingapi get-resources).
{
"ResourceTagMappingList": [
{
"ResourceARN": "arn:aws:kinesisvideo:us-west-2:566896750414:stream/<my-prefix>-connect-<my-username>-contact-b7443850-6b5b-4def-b3c2-d5b7d92cfc53/1691776084391",
"Tags": [
{
"Key": "connect:source-type",
"Value": "contact"
},
{
"Key": "connect:instance-id",
"Value": <my-connect-instance-id>
}
]
}
]
}
Here, the ARN for the stream is:
<my-prefix>-connect-<my-username>-contact-b7443850-6b5b-4def-b3c2-d5b7d92cfc53/1691776084391
where <my-prefix> and <my-username> are specific to my Amazon Connect instance.
From what I've gleaned, the unique contact ID here is:
b7443850-6b5b-4def-b3c2-d5b7d92cfc53/1691776084391
But notice the slash here /. That triggers issues with the AWS CLI command:
aws kinesis describe-stream --stream-name "<my-prefix>-connect-<my-username>-contact-b7443850-6b5b-4def-b3c2-d5b7d92cfc53/1691776084391"
which leads to the error:
An error occurred (ValidationException) when calling the DescribeStream operation: 1 validation error detected: Value '<prefix>-connect-<username>-contact-fdc70c90-0153-4b78-9012-00316c829524/1691776086035' at 'streamName' failed to satisfy constraint: Member must satisfy regular expression pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+
QUESTIONS: what is the stream name here? If what I am using is correct, then why is the describe-stream command returning an error?
NOTE: my ultimate goal is to wire up a Golang app that reads the live audio stream, so somehow I need to tap into the corresponding Kinesis Video Stream when a call triggers ... all of this outside of the context of AWS (IE, I am not using Lambda). In that sense, the real question is less about the naming conventions for this sort of stream and more about how my app can be fired when such streaming commences.
