These errors occur before your code is run so you can’t implement error handling within your code to identify them. Instead, you should configure alarms for your Lambda functions that detect these errors and notify the operations and workload owners. These errors are often related to a configuration or permission error and can occur because of a change in your configuration or permissions. Invocation errors might initiate a retry, which causes multiple invocations of your function.
