InvalidQueryStringException on AWS_IAM secured API Gateway Lambda Proxy

I'm passing GET parameters to an AWS API Gateway resource Endpoint ( LAMBDA_PROXY) with serverless.



The GET Parameters are in array annotation, eg. ?filter[someKey]=someValue, and the parameters are passed to the handler in the event object properly.



As soon as I try to apply an authorizer to that same endpoint (authorizer: AWS_IAM) and use Postman to send the correct Authorization info (AccesKey, SecretKey, SessionToken) with the same GET Request parameters, I'm receiving the following response:
StatusCode:
400 Bad Request
Headers:
x-amzn-ErrorType InvalidQueryStringException
Body:
{"message":null}



I couldn't find any good info on the InvalidQueryStringException from AWS.



Why are the GET request parameters properly passed to the handler without AWS_IAM authorizer but are rejected with AWS_IAM in place ?



Thank you for an insight on this.

  • PS: Testing the resource endpoint API Gateway via the AWS Console with that same query string yields a correct response...

  • Could you just confirm you query string (values are less important than keys)?

Seems, that "percent-encoding" the square brackets is a way to get around the limitation of AWS API Gateway to not support square brackets as part of the query string, which is indeed a little odd.



So just "percent-encoding" the square bracket of the query string: ?filter[someKey]=someValue to ?filter%5BsomeKey%5D=someValue did actually help.



Besides, encoding the whole query string part, did not succeed (500, Internal Server Error), so you will very likely end up encoding just the square brackets.
