AWS Lambda

Prerequisites

The following example requires the boto3 library, an OpenAI API key, and AWS credentials for an IAM principal that can list and invoke Lambda functions.

uv pip install openai boto3

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your_aws_access_key_id"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your_aws_secret_access_key"
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION="us-east-1"

For temporary AWS credentials, also set AWS_SESSION_TOKEN. Grant the IAM principal these permissions:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "lambda:ListFunctions",
        "lambda:InvokeFunction"
      ],
      "Resource": "*"
    }
  ]
}

Example

The following agent lists Lambda functions in the configured AWS account and invokes a specific function.

cookbook/91_tools/aws_lambda_tools.py

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.tools.aws_lambda import AWSLambdaTools

# Create an Agent with the AWSLambdaTool
agent = Agent(
    tools=[AWSLambdaTools(region_name="us-east-1")],
    name="AWS Lambda Agent",
)

# Example 1: List all Lambda functions
agent.print_response("List all Lambda functions in our AWS account", markdown=True)

# Example 2: Invoke a specific Lambda function
agent.print_response("Invoke the 'hello-world' Lambda function with an empty payload", markdown=True)
