When doing the "Creating Your Own Serverless Reminder Service on AWS with Step Functions, API Gateway, Lambda and S3" lab in the AWS CDA 2018 course, the practice-time-labs/reminder-service-step-functions-api-gateway/step-function-template.json file contains placeholder values for the task resource ARN, for example:

"TextReminder": {
  "Type" : "Task",
  "Resource": "TEXT_REMINDER_ARN",
  "Next": "NextState"
},

Perhaps its a new thing in the step functions editor in AWS, but this is not allowed to be saved as it expects this Resource value to be a valid lambda or step function ARN format. I got around this by creating a new empty lambda function and using its ARN as a placeholder instead.

I am getting this error while working for Canary labda function can you please help! Copied ur code and enter he environmental variables as well, you can ping me at [email protected] to talk further....
