In this video, Jeff Winesett demonstrates how to deploy the Amazon Gateway for external use and testing. Once deployed, CORS settings are added to allow a single page web app to connect with Amazon gateway API.
- [Instructor] OK, the last thing I want to show…is actually testing the API externally.…If you recall we tested our lambda function directly…against the DynamoDB table,…then we tested the API internally,…and now I wanna test it externally.…And the first thing I need to do to do that…is I have to deploy the API…to make it externally accessible.…So, I'll go to the API Gateway,…I'll chose the demo microservice API,…and to deploy I go up here to actions…and I choose deploy API.…
I give it a deployment stage,…let me call this stage test,…and just a test environment.…And deployment description,…this deployment is version 1.0 initial deployment.…D-e-p-l-o-y, alright and deploy.…Now my test stage is deployed.…
I've got any of these options available to me,…that's what the DynamoDB CRUD function provides.…And, I've got this invoke URL…that's available to me right here.…So, this is gonna be important for me to test out the API.…I wanna be testing out POST,…so in order to post information externally to the API,…which will then invoke the lambda function,…
