When creating new AWS SQS queues in an account with too many existing queues, I find that the newly created queues can’t be found in either the AWS console or via the CLI list-queues command. I believe this issue is related to how AWS handles pagination. This issue also affects selecting queues in the Lambda UI, such as when assigning a DLQ.

I know using Terraform is an option, but sometimes I just need to create a queue quickly for testing. Is there a more direct method to locate these new queues?

    Update: I finally found a solution.

    If you want to make sure that your newly created queue appears, you can name the queue with a prefix that starts with the letter "a". This will make sure the queue is included in the initial set of results returned by pagination

    Yes, use the AWS CLI tool

    Or create a script using one of the AWS SDKs
