Step Functions Retriers: Retriers provide a built-in way to gracefully handle transient errors within State Machines. Here ' s how to use them:

Directly attach a retrier to the problematic ' GetResource ' task.

Configure the retrier:

ErrorEquals: Set this to [ ' TooManyRequestsException ' ] to target the specific error.

IntervalSeconds: Set to 10 for the desired retry delay.

MaxAttempts: Set to 1, as you want only one retry attempt.

Error Handling:

Upon ' TooManyRequestsException ' , the retrier triggers the task again after 10 seconds.

On a second failure, Step Functions moves to the next state or fails the workflow, as per your design.

' IllegalArgumentException ' causes error propagation as intended.

The safest way to prevent cross-tenant data leakage during processing is to enforce tenant isolation at the authorization layer , not only in application logic. AWS supports this with ABAC (attribute-based access control) using IAM principal/session tags and policy condition keys. The goal is to ensure that, for each invocation, the function can access only the S3 prefix and DynamoDB items that match the tenant being processed.

First, the Lambda execution role should be permitted to assume a dedicated data access role (B). This creates a clear separation: the execution role has minimal base permissions and can obtain tenant-scoped permissions only by assuming the data role.

Second, the Lambda function should assume that data access role with the tenant name as a session tag and then use the temporary credentials for all S3/DynamoDB calls (F). Session tagging ties the caller’s identity attributes (tenant) to the credentials used for data access.

Third, attach policies to the data access role that restrict access using conditions that compare the session tag to the requested resource attributes (C). For S3, policies can restrict access to object ARNs like arn:aws:s3:::bucket/${aws:PrincipalTag/tenant}/*. For DynamoDB, policies can restrict access by partition key using dynamodb:LeadingKeys so the role can read/write only items whose partition key equals the tenant tag. This ensures that even if the function code has a bug or receives unexpected input, AWS authorization prevents it from reading or writing another tenant’s data.

Option A is not required as stated; you typically need permission to pass session tags (and the trust/policy must allow tagging), but the key actions here are: enable assume role (B), enforce tag-based data policies (C), and actually assume the role with tenant tag (F). Option D is not generally the primary control for DynamoDB; the standard enforcement is via IAM identity policies (and dynamodb:LeadingKeys). Option E (RCP) is an AWS Organizations guardrail and is not necessary for this single-application isolation pattern.

AWS SAM provides built-in tooling to generate realistic event payloads that match the structure of events produced by AWS services (such as S3, SNS, SQS, API Gateway, EventBridge, and others). The command designed specifically for this purpose is sam local generate-event. It produces sample event JSON that mirrors the format AWS services deliver to Lambda, which meets the requirement that payload structures match real service events.

This approach also requires the least development effort because the developer does not need to manually craft and maintain JSON payload files. Instead, the developer can generate the appropriate event type with SAM, optionally tweak values (bucket name, object key, request parameters), and then run sam local invoke using the generated payload. This significantly reduces mistakes and saves time, especially when testing multiple event sources.

Why other options are less suitable:

A (shareable test events) is vague and typically still requires manual creation/maintenance.

B requires manually creating payloads, which is error-prone and higher effort.

C adds unnecessary operational overhead (S3 storage) and still relies on manual payload creation.

Therefore, using sam local generate-event is the quickest and lowest-effort way to generate accurate AWS-service-like test payloads for local Lambda testing.
