AWS Lambda - unable to convert SDK call to promise - amazon-web-services

Question

I have a Lambda which looks like so:
module.exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {
AWS.config.setPromisesDependency(null);
const uploadPromise = s3.upload(params).promise();
uploadPromise.then((data) => {
const response = {
...
};
return response;
}).catch((error) => {
console.log(error);
});
};
Calling it from Postman results in server error in Postman. CloudWatch logs have no further info.
Doing:
s3.upload(params, (error, data) => {
if (error) {
console.error("error occurred storing to s3: ", error);
return;
}
const response = {
...
};
return response;
});
does not result in a server error.
I am trying to follow the information from AWS that can be found here:

Postman is able to upload to Lambda by doing the following with async/await and try/catch:
exports.handler = async function(event, context) {
const s3 = new AWS.S3();
const encodedImage = util.inspect(event.body);
const decodedImage = Buffer.from(encodedImage, "base64");
const filePath = "test.png";
const params = {
Body: decodedImage,
Bucket: "my bucket",
Key: filePath,
ACL: "public-read",
ContentType: "mime/png"
};
try {
const result = await s3.upload(params).promise();
const response = {
statusCode: 200,
headers: {
my_header: "my_value"
},
body: JSON.stringify(result),
isBase64Encoded: false
};
return response;
} catch (error) {
console.log('error')
}
};
