From, my postman, I'm passing the following in the Body as raw JSON
{
"profile": {
"emailAddress": "[email protected]",
"givenName": "John",
"firstName": "John",
"lastName": "Thomas",
"profileePic": null
}
}
However, my JavaScript code is breaking as I'm unable to parse the attributes like emailAddress, givenName within the profile object. I'm getting following error when I see it on my AWS CloudWatch

What is strange more about is that event.body is getting parsed to {"service":"user-service"} I was expecting profile object here.
This is my Lambda (written in JavaScript using Node.js runtime) code for reference where I'm trying to parse the event
exports.lambdaHandler = async (event, context) => {
logger.info('event:', event);
let body, data;
let statusCode = 200;
const headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Access-Control-Allow-Headers': 'Content-Type',
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
'Access-Control-Allow-Methods': '*'
};
logger.info('event.body::', event.body);
logger.info('event.body.profile::', event.body.profile);
const profile = event.body.profile;
logger.info('profile:', profile);
const emailAddress = profile.emailAddress;
const hash = md5(emailAddress.trim().toLowerCase());
I tried to debug a lot but could not find anything concrete yet.
CodePudding user response：
The body in your Event is a String, not an Object, you first have to parse it using the JSON.parse() function, and then extract the profile from the returned Object
