I'm getting an error creating a AWS AppSync Authenticated DataSource - amazon-web-services

Question

I working through the Build On Serverless|S2 E4 video and I've gotten to the point of creating an authenticated HTTP datasource using the AWS CLI. I'm getting this error.
Parameter validation failed:
Unknown parameter in httpConfig: "authorizationConfig", must be one of: endpoint
I think I'm using the same information provided in the video, repository and gist, updated for my own aws account. It seems like it's some kind of formatting or missing information error, but, I'm just not seeing the problem.
When I remove the "authorizationConfig" property from the state-machine-datasource.json the command works.
I've reviewed the code against the information in the video as well as documentation and examples here and here provided by aws
This is the command I'm running.
aws appsync create-data-source --api-id {my app sync app id} --name ProcessBookingStateMachine
--type HTTP --http-config file://src/backend/booking/state-machine-datasource.json
--service-role-arn arn:aws:iam::{my account}:role/AppSyncProcessBookingState --profile default
This is my state-machine-datasource.json:
{
"endpoint": "https://states.us-east-2.amazonaws.com",
"authorizationConfig": {
"authorizationType": "AWS_IAM",
"awsIamConfig": {
"signingRegion": "us-east-2",
"signingServiceName": "states"
}
}
}
Thanks,

I needed to update my aws cli to the latest version. The authenticated http datasource is something fairly new I guess.
