AWS Sagemaker, InvokeEndpoint operation, Model error: “setting an array element with a sequence.”

Question

I am trying to Invoke Endpoint, previously deployed on Amazon SageMaker. Here is my code:

import numpy as np
import boto3

client = boto3.client('sagemaker-runtime')

def np2csv(arr):
    csv = io.BytesIO()
    np.savetxt(csv, arr, delimiter=',', fmt='%g')
    return csv.getvalue().decode().rstrip()

endpoint_name = 'DEMO-XGBoostEndpoint-2018-12-12-22-07-28'
test_vector = np.array([3.60606061e+00, 
                        3.91395664e+00, 
                        1.34200000e+03, 
                        4.56100000e+03,
                        2.00000000e+02, 
                        2.00000000e+02]) 
csv_test_vector = np2csv(test_vector)

response = client.invoke_endpoint(EndpointName=endpoint_name,
                               ContentType='text/csv',
                               Body=csv_test_vector)

And here is the error I get:

ModelErrorTraceback (most recent call last) in () 1 response = client.invoke_endpoint(EndpointName=endpoint_name, 2 ContentType='text/csv', ----> 3 Body=csv_test_vector)

This works:

import numpy as np
import boto3

client = boto3.client('sagemaker-runtime')
endpoint_name = 'DEMO-XGBoostEndpoint-2018-12-12-22-07-28'
test_vector = [3.60606061e+00, 
               3.91395664e+00, 
               1.34200000e+03, 
               4.56100000e+03,
               2.00000000e+02, 
               2.00000000e+02]) 

body = ',',join([str(item) for item in test_vector])
response = client.invoke_endpoint(EndpointName=endpoint_name,
                               ContentType='text/csv',
                               Body=body)
