VisualizaçõesAWS Step Functions is not catching States.Runtime error
The below step function is executed in aws and when there is a missing of a required parameter it cancel the flow and throws States.Runtime Error. This is in catch phase of the step function but it is not catching the error as stated.
Defined Step function is as below,
{
"StartAt": "Log Start Step Function",
"Comment": "Executed with inputs",
"States": {
"Log Start Step Function": {
"Type": "Task",
"Resource": "arn:aws:lambda:eu-west-1:0000000:function:update",
"Parameters": {
"body": {
"itemID.$": "$.itemID",
"functionName.$": "$.stepFunctionName ",
"executionARN.$": "$$.Execution.Id",
"complete": false,
"inprogress": true,
"error": false
}
},
"Catch": [
{
"ErrorEquals": [
"States.Runtime"
],
"ResultPath": "$.taskresult",
"Next": "Log Failed Module"
},
{
"ErrorEquals": [
"States.ALL"
],
"ResultPath": "$.taskresult",
"Next": "Log Failed Module"
}
],
"ResultPath": "$.taskresult",
"Next": "Evaluate Module PA1"
}
}
}
Below is the step function, 
And the error thrown is as below,
Runtime error is not executing Log failed module.
{
"ErrorEquals": [
"States.Runtime"
],
"ResultPath": "$.taskresult",
"Next": "Log Failed Module"
},
Is this AWS error or something wrong with the configuration which is done here or is there any other way to validate parameters in AWS Step Functions

From https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/concepts-error-handling.html
A States.Runtime error is not retriable, and will always cause the execution to fail. A retry or catch on States.ALL will not catch States.Runtime errors.

Your state machine is expecting the following as input:
"Parameters": {
"body": {
"itemID.$": "$.itemID",
"functionName.$": "$.stepFunctionName ",
"executionARN.$": "$$.Execution.Id",
"complete": false,
"inprogress": true,
"error": false
}
},
You need to pass them when you start a new execution instead of:
{
"Comment": "Insert your JSON here"
}
Which you are currently passing because it comes by default as the input body of a new execution in the AWS Console.

I have the same problem.
I am beginning to think that the runtime error happens when the input path is processed, and before the catcher can be initialized. This means that try / catch to test for parameters present in the input is not possible. I also tried ChoiceState, to no avail.
So I think there is no solution but to provide every parameter you refer to in the state machine definition. But the documentation is not clear on this.
