integration of lambda authorizer to api gateway

Question

I have a lambda configured to run as an HTTP server. Following example event is passed to it,

```

  "version": "2.0",
  "routeKey": "$default",
  "rawPath": "/path/to/resource",
  "rawQueryString": "sale_code=1&service=Dashboards&aws_account_id=021211401397&authorization=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.gC_1PkwHHQNlnMgljXmnTolI9ZywePsE2FqFcY8zKcaFWuvZwRN-cxzGlbT_aOLeTxF9ZeSzNzQHwQ_mBcTe7KBeZH4CI1ODvE5Fpg0UahE-lQIcXN8g9k9Mmd6JvQ6zRagAqIqm_4ct3yDExUooUwEOxmln3JOCpttuARFJppRydNDqdZ61kB_QGCl5g-n9ulvO83MNJZJHxIJVrI5FT6qfpTMBAmvRwX2GoFSSfQ74Ai1lTm7ue-PF27H2LmHPuksqnl1jp4QVfn_XJR7g_VqXi1MecoV349RDDIw4hovyLcWc9nEn-waSztkzgcMQ7gFv4TRLAUzGxnMJCXKlZw",

I have integrated this lambda as my lambda authorizer but when I test it I get this error

```
"statusCode": 422, "headers": {"content-length": "347", "content-type": "application/json"}, "multiValueHeaders": {}, "body": "{\"detail\":[{\"loc\":[\"query\",\"authorization\"],\"msg\":\"field required\",\"type\":\"value_error.missing\"},{\"loc\":[\"query\",\"aws_account_id\"],...
```

How can I fix this?

Accepted Answer

Not sure I completly understand what you are trying to do. If your function is a web server, it is not the same as a Lambda authorizer. A Lambda authorizer is a way to implement custom authorization mechanisms, and there is a specific response format for it.
