I followed the example from here to set up a sample AWS Lambda function: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/get-started-step4-optional.html.
Then, I created an HTTP GET endpoint via AWS API Gateway. I can access the endpoint but I don't know how to pass that int myCount as a parameter.
I tried ?myCount=3 as a GET parameter but that didn't work.
Any help?
You need to setup a mapping template in API Gateway. If you know the name of your parameters ahead of time your template could look like this:
{
"myCount": "$input.params('myCount')",
"myUserId": "$input.params('myUserId')"
}
Where each $input.params('...') will get evaluated and the value in your query string will be put in its place when the event is passed to Lambda.
This is pretty much a duplicate of passing query params for aws lambda function
This is another way to do it:
Open API Gateway, select your endpoint and click on Resources
Select Method Request in the settings
Under the URL Query String Parameters, you can add query string.
As an example, in my Python lambda function, I can retrieve the query parameter just with the following:
def endpoint(event, context):
my_parameter = event["queryStringParameters"]
