Adding Path Parameters to API Gateway

To add path parameters to API Gateway, follow these steps:

1. Create an API using the AWS Management Console. Add a resource, and in the resource’s path, include a set of curly brackets to designate it as a path parameter. For example, if you want to add a path parameter called “id”, the path should look like “/resource/{id}”.

2. Create a method (e.g., GET) and link it to the Lambda function or another integration of your choice. This method will handle the request for the specified path parameter.

3. Test the API on the AWS Management Console to ensure it works correctly. You can send a test request with the path parameter to see the response.

In conclusion, adding path parameters to AWS API Gateway is a simple and powerful feature that enables you to create more dynamic and flexible APIs. With path parameters, you can easily handle specific requests and retrieve the information requested by clients.
