index dynamodb data to cloudsearch using AWS Lambda

indexAccountsToCloudsearch.js

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');

exports.handler = function(event, context) {
    var cloudsearchdomain = new AWS.CloudSearchDomain({endpoint: 'doc-dev-cinch-accounts-ltmqj5gt5mjb5hg5eyqaf2v5hu.us-east-1.cloudsearch.amazonaws.com'});

    var documents = event.Records.map(function(record) {
        var data = {id : record.dynamodb.Keys.id.S};
        
        if (record.eventName === 'REMOVE') {
            data.type = 'delete'
        } else {
            var image = record.dynamodb.NewImage;
            
            data.type = 'add'

                email : image.email.S

    console.log('uploading documents to cloudsearch domain', params);
    cloudsearchdomain.uploadDocuments(params, function(err, data) {
        if(err) {
            console.log('Error uploading documents to cloudsearch', err, err.stack);
            context.fail(err);

@brianfoody you can iterate over the keys in image and use output from aws-sdk/lib/dynamodb/converter (const output = require('aws-sdk/lib/dynamodb/converter').output;) to do the rest of the type mapping all of the way down (nested). See https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/blob/v2.32.0/lib/dynamodb/converter.js#L124-L176
Something like (using the newer lambda node versions):

const output = require('aws-sdk/lib/dynamodb/converter').output;
// ...
data.fields = Object.keys(image).reduce((prev, next) => {
  prev[next] = output(image[next]);
  return prev;
}, {});
