Amazon IoT Greengrass Version 1 entered the extended life phase on June 30, 2023. For more information, see the Amazon IoT Greengrass V1 maintenance policy. After this date, Amazon IoT Greengrass V1 won't release updates that provide features, enhancements, bug fixes, or security patches. Devices that run on Amazon IoT Greengrass V1 won't be disrupted and will continue to operate and to connect to the cloud. We strongly recommend that you migrate to Amazon IoT Greengrass Version 2, which adds significant new features and support for additional platforms.

* To use the Python 3.8 runtimes, you must create a symbolic link from the default Python 3.7 installation folder to the installed Python 3.8 binaries. For more information, see the connector-specific requirements.
Note
We recommend that you upgrade connector versions from Python 2.7 to Python 3.7. Continued support for Python 2.7 connectors depends on Amazon Lambda runtime support. For more information, see Runtime support policy in the Amazon Lambda Developer Guide.
