500 Internal Server Error

Bug Report

Description

Ran out of ideas where the actual error may be. I'm testing a very simple setup according to this article. Serverless builds fine and deploys fine.

When I test the endpoint from within API Gateway console, this is the output I get and everything seems to work fine:

Fri Jan 13 10:08:40 UTC 2023 : Successfully completed execution
Fri Jan 13 10:08:40 UTC 2023 : Method completed with status: 200

If I test the endpoint from outside (postman or curl) I get the following sequence of logs (I have enabled REST API logging in serverless config):

..............
Method request body before transformations: [Binary Data]
Execution failed due to configuration error: Unable to transform request
Method completed with status: 500

There is no setup for authorization or api keys and other endpoints from the same setup execute just fine.

Example request I'm trying with curl:

curl --location --request POST 'https://[API_ID].execute-api.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/stage/schedule' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "dueDate": "2023-01-13T13:04:14.397Z"
}'

Additional Data

• Serverless Framework Core Version you're using: 3.22.0
• The Plugin Version you're using: 3.11.1

For others experiencing similar issue, it's because in our serverless config we have apiGateway -> binaryMediaTypes: ['*/*'] which basically means all incoming payload is binary.

Is there a way to convert it to text using body mapping template like described here? https://www.serverless.com/plugins/serverless-step-functions#customizing-request-body-mapping-templates
