Request handler for a function in R
Written by
Updated at July 2, 2026
A request handler is a function used to process each R function call. When creating a function version, you must specify the entry point, which consists of the file name and the name of the R function that receives the request (see example for the handler in the function.R or function.handler file).
Note
At any given time, a single function instance processes only one request.
The handler can accept and return various types of data. For more information about this and available ways to set a request handler, see this guide.
