VPC中的AWS Lambda函数无法将项目放入Dynamodb表中

Question

This is the error I keep getting

The crazy part is my code worked just fine yesterday. And now all of a sudden my lambda function seems not to be able to access the dynamodb. They are connected via a VPC endpoint and it worked fine yesterday. This has happened to me before and when I just left it for the night it ended up working the next day. This is unacceptable behaviour though and I need to find out what is causing it.

Any ideas?

I couldn't get this to work simply using the new vpc endpoint feature so I went for the old way of doing things which is using a nat gateway. Here's a good link on how to do it: https://gist.github.com/reggi/dc5f2620b7b4f515e68e46255ac042a7
