Configuring region in Node.js AWS SDK

Question

Can someone explain how to fix a missing config error with Node.js? I\'ve followed all the examples from the aws doc page but I still get this error no matter what.

I'm impressed this hasn't been posted here yet.

Instead of setting the region with AWS.config.update(), you can use

const s3 = new AWS.S3({
  region: "eu-central-1",
});

to make it instance specific.
