A preprocessor script is a capability of SageMaker Model Monitor to preprocess SageMaker endpoint data capture before creating metrics for model quality. However, even with a preprocessor script, you still face a mismatch in the designed behavior of SageMaker Model Monitor, which expects one inference payload per request.
