Invoke Async

lambda_invoke_async R Documentation

For asynchronous function invocation, use Invoke

Description

For asynchronous function invocation, use invoke.

If you do use the InvokeAsync action, note that it doesn't support the use of X-Ray active tracing. Trace ID is not propagated to the function, even if X-Ray active tracing is turned on.
