Error: DynamoDB Failed To Compute Node presentation

Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
This error can arise due to a problem with the underlying data structure for multiple reasons. In this case, the service becomes unable to process a request. Incorrect key schema, when the request payload is not in the correct format or misses required information, and invalid data types corresponding to the table schema are several possible reasons for this error.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
Use the AWS CLI or the AWS Management Console to determine the table's schema. You have to ensure that the request payload matches the table schema and that all the required information is present and that the table's key schema and indexes are correctly defined. In addition, you can check the logs to find out the exact cause of the error and use the DynamoDB documentation about the specific error message and troubleshooting.
