    Really great tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing. FYI - to people who may be reading the comments - if you setup your FastApi with .env locally and are running with dotenv, you will need to change all those os.getenv() to ENV_VAR = os.environ['NAME'] in lambda.

    Use lambda layers for dependencies. That way you also get the option to edit the code in the editor on the lambda page. If your lambda gets to the point where without dependencies it exceeds the lambda limit, you are packing too much stuff into it.

    You need to debug to see what is happening. Maybe it is some incompatibility between lib version supported by aws lambda. What you can try to do is in your requirements.txt, force the version of fast api to 0.99.0 (fastapi==0.99.0) and remove the version of pydantic and pydantic core (so it will get the correct one. When you run locally with uvicorn you will find the right version). This happened to me in another project and might fix the issue.
