Great article [Phillip Ninan](https://hashnode.com/@phillip_ninan)

I just wanted to bring something to your attention. With the `aws-sdk`, you can either use the `callback` function (on the request method) - OR - use `.promise()` with `.then()` or `await`. It seems you have made a mix of moth here. The `.promise()` method does not take a callback.

Did I miss something?

[Benoît Bouré](https://hashnode.com/@bboure) No, you are correct! I forgot to add a `.then()`. I updated the article and the Github source code. Ironically, the code still executed properly with this error, but the logs were never printed.

Thank you for pointing that out!!
