R function request handler

Written by

Updated at February 10, 2023

A request handler is a function that is used to handle each R function invocation. When creating a function version, you should specify the entry point. It consists of the file name and the name of the R function where requests are sent (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 data. For more information about this and available ways to set the request handler, see the relevant section.
