# API Gateway Integration

API Gateway Integration in AWS defines how an API method connects to a backend endpoint or service. It specifies the type of integration, such as HTTP, AWS service, Lambda function, or mock, and manages request/response transformations, timeouts, and credentials. This resource is essential for linking API Gateway methods to the actual business logic or data sources.

| credentials           | core | string        | Specifies the credentials required for the integration, if any. For AWS integrations, three options are available. To specify an IAM Role for API Gateway to assume, use the role's Amazon Resource Name (ARN). To require that the caller's identity be passed through from the request, specify the string arn:aws:iam::\*:user/\*. To use resource-based permissions on supported Amazon Web Services services, specify null.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  |

| passthrough_behavior  | core | string        | Specifies how the method request body of an unmapped content type will be passed through the integration request to the back end without transformation. A content type is unmapped if no mapping template is defined in the integration or the content type does not match any of the mapped content types, as specified in requestTemplates. The valid value is one of the following: WHEN_NO_MATCH: passes the method request body through the integration request to the back end without transformation when the method request content type does not match any content type associated with the mapping templates defined in the integration request. WHEN_NO_TEMPLATES: passes the method request body through the integration request to the back end without transformation when no mapping template is defined in the integration request. If a template is defined when this option is selected, the method request of an unmapped content-type will be rejected with an HTTP 415 Unsupported Media Type response. NEVER: rejects the method request with an HTTP 415 Unsupported Media Type response when either the method request content type does not match any content type associated with the mapping templates defined in the integration request or no mapping template is defined in the integration request.                                                                                                               |

| type                  | core | string        | Specifies an API method integration type. The valid value is one of the following: For the HTTP and HTTP proxy integrations, each integration can specify a protocol (http/https), port and path. Standard 80 and 443 ports are supported as well as custom ports above 1024. An HTTP or HTTP proxy integration with a connectionType of VPC_LINK is referred to as a private integration and uses a VpcLink to connect API Gateway to a network load balancer of a VPC.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| uri                   | core | string        | Specifies Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the integration endpoint. For HTTP or HTTP_PROXY integrations, the URI must be a fully formed, encoded HTTP(S) URL according to the RFC-3986 specification for standard integrations. If connectionType is VPC_LINK specify the Network Load Balancer DNS name. For AWS or AWS_PROXY integrations, the URI is of the form arn:aws:apigateway:{region}:{subdomain.service|service}:path|action/{service_api}. Here, {Region} is the API Gateway region (e.g., us-east-1); {service} is the name of the integrated Amazon Web Services service (e.g., s3); and {subdomain} is a designated subdomain supported by certain Amazon Web Services service for fast host-name lookup. action can be used for an Amazon Web Services service action-based API, using an Action={name}&{p1}={v1}&p2={v2}... query string. The ensuing {service_api} refers to a supported action {name} plus any required input parameters. Alternatively, path can be used for an Amazon Web Services service path-based API. The ensuing service_api refers to the path to an Amazon Web Services service resource, including the region of the integrated Amazon Web Services service, if applicable. For example, for integration with the S3 API of GetObject, the uri can be either arn:aws:apigateway:us-west-2:s3:action/GetObject&Bucket={bucket}&Key={key} or arn:aws:apigateway:us-west-2:s3:path/{bucket}/{key} |
