Http Status Code for Custom Lambda Function NodeJS

Question

In my lambda I am trying to throw custom error if some logic is incorrect.

I had tried: callback(err), throw new Error(err) It returned the error object, but am not able to update the HTTP response code: i.e.: I want to show 500 instead of 200 OK.

Also in my AWS Integration Response, I have declared the response types.

` if(!event.client_id || !event.client_secret){ const errorObj = { statusCode: 500, body: "No client_id or client_secret in request" } // context.succeed(errorObj); // callback(errorObj); throw new Error(JSON.stringify(errorObj));}` — SSS, Sep 05 '22 at 07:56

This seems to work in Lambda. Adding the statusCode to the response object you return.

exports.handler = async (event) => {
    let response = {
      statusCode: '500',
      body: JSON.stringify({ error: 'error' }),
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      }
};
    return response;
};
