list-topics and describe-topic do not support new-format QuickSight Q Topics created via Console #10611

Description

@joewruss-nr

Describe the bug

The AWS CLI list-topics and describe-topic commands do not return or operate on QuickSight Q Topics created via the QuickSight Console (new format). Only legacy-format topics are returned/supported by these commands.

Regression Issue

  • Select this option if this issue appears to be a regression.

Expected Behavior

list-topics should return all Q Topics, including those created via the Console using the current/new topic format.
describe-topic should successfully describe any topic visible in the Console.

Current Behavior

list-topics returns an empty TopicsSummaries array (does not include new-format topics).
describe-topic returns the following error:
An error occurred (InvalidParameterValueException) when calling the DescribeTopic operation:
This operation is not enabled for this topic. Please use new versions of Topic APIs.

Reproduction Steps

Create a Q Topic via the QuickSight Console (Data → Topics → New Topic)
Confirm the topic is visible in the Console (it is, showing "Owned by Me")
Run list-topics via CLI:
aws quicksight list-topics
--aws-account-id
--region
Observe that TopicsSummaries returns an empty array
Obtain the topic ID from the Console URL and run describe-topic:
aws quicksight describe-topic
--aws-account-id
--topic-id
--region
