Accessing AWS Lambda from IoT devices

All API SDK for accessing AWS IoT, including AWS Greengrass, can be obtained on the software menu from AWS IoT Management Console. You can install it based on your device and runtime platforms.

Please write the following complete program:

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');AWS.config.update({region:'<region>'});var accessKeyId = '<accessKeyId>'var secretAccessKey = '<secretAccessKey>';AWS.config.update({accessKeyId: accessKeyId, secretAccessKey: secretAccessKey}); ...
