AWS API Gatway (Proxy) with Lambda - Thworing internal server error - amazon-web-services

Question

I am working on a custom auth solution, I backend is on NODE (lambda) and calling that lambda by API gateway (it's a post-call).
For every thin is working fine if I use no-Proxy APIs, but in my case in need to pass custom additional headers. And when I tried with prox it is not responding. (it look like Cognito async call takes time or response is not resolving)
I am not sure I am missing some configuration or something wrong with code (code is working fine individual lambda and with API without Proxy).
here is my Lambda code.
// const AWS = require("aws-sdk");
// var crypto = require("crypto-js");
var CryptoJS = require("crypto-js");
var Crypto = require("crypto");
const { CognitoIdentityServiceProvider } = require("aws-sdk");
const hashSecret = (clientSecret, username, clientId) =>
Crypto.createHmac("SHA256", clientSecret)
.update(username + clientId)
.digest("base64");
async function isUserValid() {
const USER_POOL_ID = "poolid";
const CLIENT_ID = "clidntID";
const CLIENT_SECRET = "secreteCode";
const Password = "userName";
const Username = "password";
const cognito = new CognitoIdentityServiceProvider({
region: "ap-southeast-2",
});
try {
const payload = {
UserPoolId: USER_POOL_ID,
AuthFlow: "ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH",
ClientId: CLIENT_ID,
AuthParameters: {
USERNAME: "username",
PASSWORD: "password",
SECRET_HASH: hashSecret(CLIENT_SECRET, Username, CLIENT_ID),
},
};
const response = await cognito.adminInitiateAuth(payload).promise();
// // console.log("respone :", response)
// console.log("before response node js lambda ::: ")
return response;
} catch (e) {
console.log("error : ", e.message);
}
}
async function test() {
return "test ";
}
exports.handler = async (event) => {
// TODO implement
console.log("event : ", event);
'
const response = {
statusCode: 200,
headers: {
"Content-Type" : "application/json",
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin" : "*",
"X-Content-Type-Option" : "nosniff",
"Content-Security-Policy" : "default-src self",
"X-frame-options" : "DENY",
"Cache-Control" : "max-age=86400",
"X-XSS-protection" : 0,
"X-rate-limit": 600,
"Strict-Transport-Security": "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains",
},
// body: await test() // (this response is working fine
body: await isUserValid(),
};
return response;
};
Errors when tested from API gateway with proxy setting on :
{
"message": "Internal server error"
}
Response Headers
{"x-amzn-ErrorType":"InternalServerErrorException"}
I tried multiple options but nothing is working for me.

The 'body' property must be a JSON string.
await cognito.adminInitiateAuth(payload).promise() is returning an object. You need to JSON.stringify() that response. Be sure to take care of the error case , too.
