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}”.
