Lambda function with SQS trigger / Lambda Event JSON payload

Question

I am receiving the error below when I am testing with lambda function via the AWS Console > Lambda > Specific Lambda Function > Test tab

Or within my IDE, VS Comm 2022 when I am invoking/testing the lambda function there as well.

What is perplexing is when I use 'Mock Lambda Test Tool' and pass in that same JSON there is no error and I get the expected output....

The error is listed below. I have also listed my code and the JSON that I am sending to it.

**Amazon.Lambda.Serialization.SystemTextJson.JsonSerializerException: Error converting the Lambda event JSON payload to type System.String: The JSON value could not be converted to System.String. Path: $ | LineNumber: 0 | BytePositionInLine: 1.**

JSON:

**{
	    "FirstName": "JTran"         
}**

**Function Code**

```
using Amazon.Lambda.Core;
using Amazon.Lambda.SQSEvents;

// Assembly attribute to enable the Lambda function's JSON input to be converted into a .NET class.
[assembly: LambdaSerializer(typeof(Amazon.Lambda.Serialization.SystemTextJson.DefaultLambdaJsonSerializer))]

namespace Test_function
{
    public class Function
    {

public string FunctionHandler(ApiHeader input, ILambdaContext context)
        {

return $"Additional text added as a test {input.FirstName}";

}
    }
}

```

**Class to be associated with it when the JSON object is deserialized:**

```
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace Test_function
{
    public class ApiHeader
    {
        public string ApiID { get; set; }
        public string FirstName { get; set; }
        public string LastName { get; set; }
        public string Body { get; set; }

}
}
```

Hello,

I deployed your Lambda and it worked with the testevent you provided using the Lambda-Test-tab in the console:

{ "FirstName": "JTran"
}

**Result:**
****"Additional text added as a test JTran"****

Are you sure that you not accidently saved a faulty testevent and lambda is using that always instead of your input?

**Handlername** differs in my case (because I used hello-world-sam application as a template): HelloWorld::HelloWorld.Function::FunctionHandler

**Using**: .NET 6 (C#/PowerShell) & x86_64
```
using Amazon.Lambda.Core;
//using Amazon.Lambda.SQSEvents;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

// Assembly attribute to enable the Lambda function's JSON input to be converted into a .NET class.
[assembly: LambdaSerializer(typeof(Amazon.Lambda.Serialization.SystemTextJson.DefaultLambdaJsonSerializer))]

namespace HelloWorld
{
    public class Function
    {

public string FunctionHandler(ApiHeader input, ILambdaContext context)
        {

return $"Additional text added as a test {input.FirstName}";

}
    }
}

namespace HelloWorld
{
    public class ApiHeader
    {
        public string ApiID { get; set; }
        public string FirstName { get; set; }
        public string LastName { get; set; }
        public string Body { get; set; }

}
}
```
