Nginx reverse proxy configuration for AWS web console - amazon-web-services

Question

Is there a way to access AWS web console via nginx reverse proxy through my subdomain?
Here is the nginx configuration is have been using :
server {
listen localhost:443 ssl;
server_name aws1.subdomain.com;
include snippets/proxy_ssl.conf;
location / {
proxy_pass https://console.aws.amazon.com/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
proxy_read_timeout 86400;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_hide_header X-Frame-Options;
}
}
The above configuration throws:
NetworkError: 400 Bad Request
And shows amazon's default 400 bad request page when i try to access https://aws1.subdomain.com in my browser.

I have this working using the following lines in nginx.conf. You can also add lines for http auth as required depending on your config.
location = / { rewrite ^ /_plugin/kibana/ redirect; }
location / {
proxy_pass https://<es-domain-url>.es.amazonaws.com;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Authorization "";
proxy_hide_header Authorization;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}
