Flask integration with aws api gateway, lambda and dynamodb - amazon-web-services

I have a aws dyanmodb on my cloud account, which is queried by a lambda triggered by api gateway.
Now i want to have a simple flask application that sends requests via apigateway rather than postman. Can anyone help with the code.
api gateway endpoint: https://3omrrlu81m.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/default
This is a simple application for a larger application
please help.
Thanking You.

API-Management Tool for FastAPI Running on AWS Lambda

I am looking for an API Management Tool alternative to AWS API Gateway.
I am running a FastAPI on AWS Lambda and I am really happy with it. But I am not happy with API Gateway.
So I am looking for an alternative to API Gateway. It should serve the whole authentication and User Management process and should be able to pass all requests to the Lambda Container.
Thanks for sharing your suggestions.

Issue with conflicting API Gateways pointing to Lambda in AWS

I am newbie to AWS and looking to resolve the API Gateway issue. We had a frontend web application where if users perform any activity by clicking a Personal Details link then request will hit the AWS API Gateway "A" and trigger lambda-A. We created AWS code pipeline and deployed application using Cloud Formation Stack which creates new API Gateway-B and Lambda-B. After the deployment it was intended that when ever user hits the Personal Details it should hit API Gateway-B and triggering the Lambda-B instead it was hitting old AWS API Gateway "A" and triggering lambda-A. Any help will be highly appreciated.

You need to update the base path mapping of your backend domain to API Gateway B.
Or you have to edit the backend url in frontend code to new api gateway url
Custom domains with API Gateway
You need to change Lambda function in API Gateway. Please check this article which have screenshots.
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/using-api-gateway-stage-variables-to-manage-lambda-functions/
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/services-apigateway.html
Also I want to recommend you to use Serverless for your project.
This was due to the User request from Website navigating to data power (third party vendor for security). In data power it was configured to old API Gateway, so we changed it to new API Gateway.

AWS API Gateway HTTP Request Interceptor

I'm not able to find any documentation about intercepting all HTTP requests passing through AWS API Gateway.
I'm trying to propose a Logging service for the backend APIs deployed on AWS API Gateway. The idea is all the HTTP requests will go through the API Gateway. If I'm able to intercept the request going through API Gateway, I can hook the logging service code.
The reason for this approach is, the logging code will be independent of the actual service code and service code won't have to be updated to include logging of request / response.
Any solutions for this?
You can put CloudFront in front of your API Gateway and then use Lambda#Edge Viewer Request to intercept all requests; we do this for logging for certain functions and it works flawlessly.
This is a good tutorial on how to setup API Gateway with CloudFront
https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/api-gateway-cloudfront-distribution/
It seems Claudia-bot-builder's intercept method will help you to intercept the API gateway requests. You can trigger an event for requests hitting to the API gateway.
`api.intercept(function (event) { ... });`

AWS API Gateway with EC2

I have a Django Project deployed in AWS EC2 and have created all the REST APIs with DRF. Everything is working great. When I point public.ip.of.ec2:8000/myapi, I get the correct response and these APIs are used in Android application.
Now, day by day the API hits will be increased. So in order to maintain API requests I want to integrate my APIs with APIGateway. After a lot of reading and searching I still could not find any definitive tutorial or steps as of how to integrate APIGateway with EC2.
I've followed this but still could not integrate APIGateway with AWS Service i.e., EC2.
Please suggest a way to do this.

Although you can configure API caching, throttling, logging and monitoring, AWS API Gateway won't scale your backend integration. You will need to configure autoscaling on backend service as well.
