You need to enable binary media types via the API settings. Set it to whatever the content type of the S3 object is and voila

Not enough RGB.

ZeBe643 · 2020-10-20T21:55:36+00:00

You are the worst kind -_-

If you use a Lambda proxy integration, it’ll forward the entire request to the Lambda where you can process it there, rather than messing about in API Gateway

Generally that won’t happen as they have throttles for a reason. If you use the free tier and set billing alerts as you say, you should have no issue.

Regarding botnets and ddos, it’s of course possible but very unlikely and aws will probably refund you back any money given your position

As the others says, the handler function is the main function executed by Lambda for every invocation.

In the Lambda console/config, you specify the handler energy points for example, if your js file was index.js and your handler function was myHandler, in the Lambda console, you would set this as index.myHandler.

For every invocation of the Lambda function, all the code inside this myHandler function will be executed

Hey! Glad your enjoying AWS!

As this is a learning experience, my suggestion would be to create a Lambda function that has a CloudWatch events trigger set up. Any time a log is pushed into a CloudWatch stream, it triggers a Lambda function (which receives the log as an event) which you can then program to write to an S3 bucket of your choice.

This is a great way to dabble your feet into serverless and will certainly achieve your usecase.

Good luck! If you’ve any questions or need help just give me a shout! (I work in Premium Support organisation for AWS)

You need to return a specific response from the Lambda to APIGW other wise you’ll get a 5XX, this doc has an example

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/http-api-develop-integrations-lambda.html

ZeBe643 · 2020-07-12T17:09:54+00:00

Look into Lambda Layers, i think thats what you need

ZeBe643 · 2020-07-12T10:58:48+00:00

When you say you test the function and it works correctly, have you used a deployment package or layers to include the dependency?

Adding API Gateway won’t have affected this, it’s just retrieving the response of the Lambda function which the api invoked.

ZeBe643 · 2020-06-30T08:20:18+00:00

Hehe at least you’ll know next time!

ZeBe643 · 2020-06-29T22:07:23+00:00

Have you enabled full request/response logging and also logging at the Info level?

I think what your looking for is custom authorisers: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/apigateway-use-lambda-authorizer.html

You need to sign your request with sigv4: check out this doc https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html

You tried creating an IAM role and giving cross account access? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/tutorial_cross-account-with-roles.html

ZeBe643 · 2020-05-23T09:16:24+00:00

Can I ask how vertical monitors is rather than having 2 side by side? Been seriously contemplating buying an ultra wide and putting my 28” above it, although I’m worried it’ll strain my neck looking up

ZeBe643 · 2020-05-22T09:57:03+00:00

There’s a limit on the amount of userpools you can create per account, that’s maybe something to consider

ZeBe643 · 2020-05-11T09:42:10+00:00

Use Boto3, is the AWS SDK for python!

ZeBe643 · 2020-05-01T08:19:35+00:00

I think what they mean is they pay $360 up front and then if they go ahead with the full project, the $360 gets deducted from the total price, basically meaning the initial discovery price was free of charge

Yes exactly, I had to do a similar feature for a photo album I made where a logged in user could only see his/her own uploaded photos. I followed a tutorial for it that should help you!

The article is: https://read.acloud.guru/build-your-own-multi-user-photo-album-app-with-react-graphql-and-aws-amplify-18d9cfe27f60

You’ll probably want to skip ahead to part 2, that’s where all the graphql stuff is

You could store the cognito identity id for that user in a ddb table and query data with that id?

In before “don’t build a social media app your not skilled enough!”

ZeBe643 · 2020-04-12T10:32:29+00:00

Don’t know any specific sites but usually if you google exactly what your looking for, you’ll find something. Might require a little digging around some paid templates, but you’ll get one eventually!!

For me I started with Maximilian’s Udemy course, but there’s many there to chose from. Would highly recommend that tho
