Passing parameters to Lambda to save data on DynamoDB (put)

I am trying to add a Todo to my DynamoDB from my ReactApp, but I always get Key errors, or replace error which means params are not being passed.

I am using Axios to send the request:

export const addTodo = createAsyncThunk(
  'todoApp/todos/addTodo',
  async (todo, { dispatch, getState }) => {
    const response = await axios.post('api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/prod/', {
        Item: {
            id:todo.key1,
            title: todo.key2,
            notes: todo.key3,
            startDate: todo.key4,
            dueDate: todo.key5,
            completed: todo.key6,
            starred: todo.key7,
            important: todo.key8,
            deleted: todo.key9,
            labels: todo.key10
        },
    });
    
    const data = await response.data;
    dispatch(getTodos());
    return data;
  }
);

and here is my Lambda function to add the item to DynamoDB: This is working, I tested from Lambda:

exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {
    console.log("Processing...");
    const params = {

        Item: {
            id:event.key1,
            title: event.key2,
            notes: event.key3,
            startDate: event.key4,
            dueDate: event.key5,
            completed: event.key6,
            starred: event.key7,
            important: event.key8,
            deleted: event.key9,
            labels: event.key10
        },
        TableName: "Todo"
    };
    const response = {
    statusCode: 200,
    headers: {
      'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
      'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials': true,
    },
    body: JSON.stringify('Done'),
  };
    
    docClient.put(params, function(err, data) {
        if(err){
            callback(err, null);
        } else {
            callback(null, data);
        }
    })
};

When I play around the code, I usually get two ERRORS:

Warning: Each child in a list should have a unique "key" prop.

or

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'replace')
