first go to lambda and create new function and write down the following code

AWS.config.update({ region: process.env.AWS_REGION });
const s3 = new AWS.S3();
const { v4: uuidv4 } = require('uuid');
const URL_EXPIRATION_SECONDS = 300;

 //Main Lambda entry point
exports.handler = async (event) => {
  return await getUploadURL(event);
};

const getUploadURL = async function(event) {
  console.log('event : ',event);
  const Key = uuidv4(); 

  //Get signed URL from S3
  const s3Params = {
    Bucket: 'bucketname',
    Key:`url-name/{Key}`,
    Expires: URL_EXPIRATION_SECONDS,
    ACL:'public-read'
  };
  const uploadURL = await s3.getSignedUrlPromise('putObject', s3Params);

  const response = {
        statusCode: 200,
        "headers": {
        "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*",
        "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE",

          uploadURL: uploadURL,
          Key : `https://name.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/${Key}`
        })
