boto3 s3 Object expiration "MalformedXML" error

Question

I'm trying to set the lifecycle configuration of a subdirectory in Amazon S3 bucket by using boto3 put_bucket_lifecycle_configuration. I used this code from aws documentation as referece:

lifecycle_config_settings = {
    'Rules': [
        {'ID': 'S3 Glacier Transition Rule',
         'Filter': {'Prefix': ''},
         'Status': 'Enabled',
         'Transitions': [
             {'Days': 0,
              'StorageClass': 'GLACIER'}
         ]}
    ]}

I removed Transitions and added Expiration, to better fit my purpouses. Here is my code:

myDirectory = 'table-data/'

lifecycle_config_settings = {
    'Rules': [{
        'ID': 'My rule',
        'Expiration': {
            'Days': 30,
            'ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker': True
        },
        'Filter': {'Prefix': myDirectory},
        'Status': 'Enabled'
     }
]}

s3 = boto3.client('s3')
s3.put_bucket_lifecycle_configuration(
    Bucket=myBucket,
    LifecycleConfiguration=lifecycle_config_settings
)

The error I'm receiving is:

An error occurred (MalformedXML) when calling the PutBucketLifecycleConfiguration operation: The XML you provided was not well-formed or did not validate against our published schema

What could be causing this error?

Just to add to SamLima's answer, it's really not possible to use both in one rule. In my case, I created two rules and I'll leave the code here to help those who need to solve this case the same way I do:

response = client.put_bucket_lifecycle_configuration(
    Bucket=bucket_name,
    LifecycleConfiguration={
        'Rules': [
            {
                "ID": "Rule 1",
                "Expiration": {
                    "Days": 100,
                },
                "NoncurrentVersionExpiration": {
                    "NoncurrentDays": 100
                },
                "Filter": {
                    "Prefix": "Prefix_1"
                },
                "Status": 'Enabled'
            },
            {
                "ID": "Rule 2",
                "Expiration": {
                    "ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker": True
                },
                "AbortIncompleteMultipartUpload": {
                    "DaysAfterInitiation": 1
                },
                "Filter": {
                    "Prefix": "Prefix_1"
                },
                "Status": 'Enabled'
            }
        ]
    }
)

Answer 2

I followed @Michael-sqlbot suggestion and found the reason it wasn't working.

The problem in this settings is in 'ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker': True that is inside Expiration key. In boto3 documentation there is an observation about it.

'ExpiredObjectDeleteMarker' cannot be specified with Days or Date in a Lifecycle Expiration Policy.

Fixing it, the settings will be:

lifecycle_config_settings = {
    'Rules': [{
        'ID': 'My rule',
        'Expiration': {
            'Days': 30
        },
        'Filter': {'Prefix': myDirectory},
        'Status': 'Enabled'
     }
