S3 callbacks get ignored - node.js

Question

I'm trying to upload a base64 encoded image to S3 through this route, but the callbacks get completely ignored and the code jumps straight to res.json("SUCCESS");
route
AWS.config.update({
accessKeyId: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
secetAccessKey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
region: "us-east-1"
});
const s3 = new AWS.S3();
....
router.post("/imageupload", async (req, res) => {
const base64 = req.body.base64;
try {
const params = {
Bucket: process.env.bucketName,
Key: "images/newImage",
Body: base64
};
await s3.putObject(params, function(err, data) {
if (err) res.json(err);
else res.json(data);
});
res.json("SUCCESS");
} catch (e) {
console.log(e.message);
res.status(500).json(e.message);
}
});
Any help is much appreciated thanks!
EDIT FIXED:
I figured out what the problem was:
I had recently reformatted my computer which meant I had to reinstall AWS cli AND reconfigure aws creds.
That was it.

The AWS documentation for using-promises.
var s3 = new AWS.S3({apiVersion: '2006-03-01', region: 'us-west-2'});
var params = {
Bucket: 'bucket',
Key: 'example2.txt',
Body: 'Uploaded text using the promise-based method!'
};
var putObjectPromise = s3.putObject(params).promise();
putObjectPromise.then(function(data) {
console.log('Success');
}).catch(function(err) {
console.log(err);
});
You can also promisify all functions by using a library such as bluebird
AWS.config.setPromisesDependency(require('bluebird'));
Here's an example using your code
router.post("/imageupload", async (req, res) => {
const base64 = req.body.base64;
try {
const params = {
Bucket: process.env.bucketName,
Key: "images/newImage",
Body: base64
};
const data = await s3.putObject(params).promise()
res.json(data);
} catch (e) {
console.log(e.message);
res.status(500).json(e.message);
}
});
