how to upgrade the node version of an aws lambda

Question

In AWS I have a lambda function that is on node version 10, but I want to update its run time version - which command do I run to make this happen e.g. wanting to update runtime to version 12? I am aware there is already a post at AWS Lambda function upgrade from NodeJs version 6.10 to 8.10 version, but I would like to know how to do this via a command and not the console.

Answer 1

In console:

• Go to your function
• Go to the "Code" tab
• Scroll down to "Runtime settings"
• Click "Edit"

Now you can select a later Node.js version
