Interface Response<T>

The response object returned from an endpoint function.

Example returning JSON:

return {
  body: {

  }
};

Example returning plaintext and custom headers and status code:

return {
  statusCode: 404,
  headers: {
    "x-request-id": "123"
  },
  body: "nobody's home"
};

See the property descriptions below for further details on allowed data types, default headers, and default status codes.
