Context  
- Config Values saved in the **SSM Parameter Store**  
- Lambda Function with environment variable from the SSM Parameter Store.

Changes in Context  
- **Update** made to a config value in the **SSM Parameter Store**

Expected effect  
- The **Lambda function** to use the previously updated value from the **SSM Parameter Store**

Question  
- How to replicate the new value from the **SSM Parameter Store** towards the **Lambda function**

Thank you in advance,
