response mapping template for a javascript resolver

I have resolvers written in JS and not VTL since AWS added support for it. I am using AWS SAM template and this is how it looks

  MyResolver:
    Type: AWS::AppSync::Resolver
    DependsOn: AppSyncSchema
    Properties:
      ApiId: !GetAtt AppSyncApi.ApiId
      TypeName: Mutation
      FieldName: addUser
      DataSourceName: !GetAtt UsersTableDataSource.Name
      RequestMappingTemplate: |
        {
          "operation": "PutItem",
          "key": util.dynamodb.toMapValues({"userId": ctx.userId, "sortKey": ctx.sortKey}),
          "attributeValues": util.dynamodb.toMapValues(ctx),
        }
      ResponseMappingTemplate: "ctx.result"

But when I query the mutation on the Appsync console I get the following error

Unrecognized token 'util': was expecting (JSON String, Number, Array, Object or token 'null', 'true' or 'false')\

I tried a couple of variations where I passed the entire value as string but it didn't work.

What am I missing or doing wrong in this template mapping?

Edit - My Updated Answer :

MyResolver:
Type: AWS::AppSync::Resolver
DependsOn: AppSyncSchema
Properties:
  ApiId: !GetAtt AppSyncApi.ApiId
  TypeName: Mutation
  FieldName: addUser
  DataSourceName: !GetAtt UsersTableDataSource.Name
  Code: |
            import { util } from '@aws-appsync/utils';
            export function request(ctx) {
                return {
                       operation: 'PutItem',
                       key: util.dynamodb.toMapValues({"userId": 
                        ctx.userId, "sortkey": ctx.sortKey}),
                       attributeValues: util.dynamodb.toMapValues(ctx),
                }
            }
        
            export function response(ctx) {
                const { error, result } = ctx;
                if (error) {
                    return util.appendError(error.message, error.type, result);
                }
                return ctx.result;
            }

Think JS resolvers are only available in Pipeline Resolvers currently and not Unit Resolvers. Also, in a Pipeline Resolver you may need to add the runtime in someway that is similar to below. Without it it may be defaulting to VTL. Note, not tested this in SAM just guessing based off of Cloudformation and CDK docs.

AWS::AppSync::Resolver

AWS::AppSync::Resolver Runtime

MyResolver:
Type: AWS::AppSync::Resolver
DependsOn: AppSyncSchema
Properties:
  ApiId: !GetAtt AppSyncApi.ApiId
  TypeName: Mutation
  FieldName: addUser
  DataSourceName: !GetAtt UsersTableDataSource.Name
  RequestMappingTemplate: |
    {
      "operation": "PutItem",
      "key": util.dynamodb.toMapValues({"userId": ctx.noteId, "selection": sk}),
      "attributeValues": util.dynamodb.toMapValues(ctx),
    }
  ResponseMappingTemplate: "ctx.result"
  Runtime:
      Name: APPSYNC_JS
      RuntimeVersion: 1.0.0
