In lambda_handler the format must be lambda_filename.lambda_functionName. Supposing you want to run the lambda_handler function and it's in lambda_fuction.py, then your handler format is lambda_function.lambda_handler.

Another reason for getting this error is module dependencies.

Your lambda_fuction.py must be in the root directory of the zip file.
