export default async function () {
// Currently the parameter needs to be created before hand
// Let's get its value
// getParameter returns a parameter object: e.g. {name: string, value: string...}
const parameter = await systemsManager.getParameter(testParameterName);
if (parameter.value !== testParameterValue) {

}
// Let's get the secret value with decryption
// destructure the parameter object to get to the values you want
const { value: encryptedParameterValue } = await systemsManager.getParameter(
