Lambda function cant load AWS sdk after switching to 18.x

I upgraded my Lambda function from node12.x to node18.x

The code worked perfectly fine on 12.x, after switching to 18.x, I can no longer include the AWS sdk:

I used to include it by simply typing:

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');

I now get this error

"Error: Cannot find module 'aws-sdk'

I think if I can just get the AWS sdk to load properly the function should be fine, any ideas?

Thanks

  • Install the aws-sdk in your lambda's package.json file.

    npm install aws-sdk@2
