'aws lambda invoke' doesn't fail if lambda fails

[adamchainz]

It would be nice for scripts to be able invoke lambdas and then succeed only if the lambda function succeeds, at least for RequestResponse invocation type. Currently this requires checking the outfile for json and if it contains errorMessage, which isn't easy nor 100% reliable.

I agree this would be nice, marking as a feature request. Not sure if we can change the behavior of the existing command but perhaps we could add another aws lambda ... command that had this extra behavior.

FWIW, not sure if this meets your use case, but AWS Chalice supports lambda functions and also has a chalice invoke command that's a wrapper around aws lambda invoke that has a lot of this behavior (aws/chalice#900).
