How do I upload my zipped lambda code into AWS Lambda?

Question

So I've read through the docs at: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/lambda-python-how-to-create-deployment-package.html

I've created the zip file, how / where do I actually upload / publish this zip file into AWS?

Answer 1

It's kind of hidden away and not very intuitive.

Within the AWS Lamba admin: Create Function > Author from Scratch. Within the Code entry type dropdown there is a Upload a .ZIP file option.

Answer 2

You can upload using aws-cli.

aws configure

aws lambda list-functions

aws lambda update-function-code \
    --function-name MyLambdaFunction \
    --zip-file fileb://index.zip

Answer 3

Upload to AWS from the Lambda console, by creating a new function here: https://console.aws.amazon.com/lambda/home. You can also build your functions and upload to AWS using a tool like Serverless framework.
