Instead of


return {
  statusCode: 200,
  body: 'Test',
}

Use

return {
  statusCode: 200,
  headers: {
    'Content-type': 'text/html; charset=UTF-8',
  },
  body: '<body style="background-color: black;"><h2 style="color: white; padding-top:200px; text-align: center; font-family: system-ui">Test</h2></body>',
}
