import boto3
from flask import Flask, request,Response, jsonify

app = Flask(__name__)
logging.basicConfig()
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
region = 'ap-south-1'
myins = ['i-043ae2fbfc26d423f','i-0df3f5ead69c6428c','i-0bac8502574c0cf1d','i-02e866c4c922f1e27']
@app.route('/', methods=['GET'])
def lambda_handler(event=None, context=None):
    logger.info('Lambda function invoked index()')
    ec2 = boto3.resource('ec2')
    ec2client = boto3.client('ec2',region_name=region)
    ec2client.stop_instances(InstanceIds=myins)
    return 'Instances are stopped!!'
   # if __name__ == '__main__':
   # app.run(debug=True)```

• Worth checking the way the zip file is created, Also check the uploaded zip if its in the correct format.
• The lambda_hanlder should be at the base of the root of the zip.
• User pip install -r requirements.txt -t .
• Also just a small improvement move the ec2 connection outside of lambda_handler.
• To start and stop the instance boto3 docs start and stop instance
