AWS Lambda
The AWS Lambda block allows you to invoke functions (i.e., programs) you have created in your Amazon AWS Lambda account. Note that you must have an Amazon AWS Lambda integration account configured in order to invoke functions.
Conditional Exits
Failed
This exit is taken if the function invocation failed due to invalid parameters, timeout, or network connectivity to Amazon AWS Lambda.
For troubleshooting purposes, use the EMail or Internal Message block to obtain content of responses indicating a failed attempt to create an object. For more information, see the description of the variable $(integrationResultBody).
