Describing AWS SSM parameters using tags failing

I am running a lambda to fetch ssm parameters in AWS and I want to filter using tags. I have tried the method recommended by aws but I keep getting this error:

"errorMessage": "An error occurred (ValidationException) when calling the DescribeParameters operation: An error occurred while calling one AWS dependency service."

Any help as to why? reference - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/parameter-search.html https://github.com/spulec/moto/blob/master/tests/test_ssm/test_ssm_boto3.py#L1043-L1045

This is the code that I am running:

import json
import boto3

ssm_client = boto3.client('ssm')

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    
    print("Fetch group A ssm parameter: ")
    
    leg_one_parameter = ssm_client.describe_parameters(
        ParameterFilters=[{"Key": "tag:group", "Values":["A"]}]
        )['Parameters']
    
    parameter_name = list(map(lambda parameter: parameter['Name'], leg_one_parameter))
   
    return parameter_name

It should work. Validation error may be produced by a bug in the boto3... More info: boto3 error for creating stack instances with "deployment targets"

I tried to execute your request and it passed.

leg_one_parameter = ssm.describe_parameters(
    ParameterFilters=[{"Key": "tag:group", "Values":["A"]}]
    )['Parameters']
leg_one_parameter
[]

I used boto3 in version 1.24.3
