Describe the bug

When I send DescribeThumbnail command using node.js MediaLive client, smithy client throws Invalid RFC-3339 date-time value. see below reference where the error throws.

https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js-v3/blob/171254fbf7a9d9ea90d02b611962c8a5a2d2150c/packages/smithy-client/src/date-utils.ts#L108

the response from the MediaLive API was a pretty normal with HTTP 200, and the actual response was as follows. but TimeStamp wasn't follows RFC-3399, which seems to be causing the error.

{
    "ThumbnailDetails": [
        {
            "PipelineId": "0",
            "Thumbnails": [
                {
                    "Body": "…",
                    "ContentType": "image/jpeg",
                    "ThumbnailType": "CURRENT_ACTIVE",
                    "TimeStamp": "2023-07-18T12:04:24"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Hi @blurfx ,

Thanks for opening this issue. This issue is because the service models this field as a date-time data type which conforms to RFC3339. So in this case its missing the Z suffix.

-                    "TimeStamp": "2023-07-18T12:04:24"
+                    "TimeStamp": "2023-07-18T12:04:24Z"

I will need to reach out to the service team and ask that they return the data which they model.

Thanks, Ran~

Yes this is the message in SDK V2 which naturally prompt dev in v3 which currently doesnt work due to this issue: (node:29980) NOTE: We are formalizing our plans to enter AWS SDK for JavaScript (v2) into maintenance mode in 2023.

[RanVaknin]

rerouting this back to the JS team. This is clearly an issue with the upstream service, but other SDKs have customizations in place to make the timestamp format less restrictive (iso8601 rather than the stricter RFC3339)

[RanVaknin]

This is fixed service side. V1092938187
