Overview

This AWS Solutions Construct implements an Amazon Cognito securing an Amazon API Gateway Lambda backed REST APIs pattern.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition:

Typescript

import { Construct } from 'constructs';
import { Stack, StackProps } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import { CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda } from '@aws-solutions-constructs/aws-cognito-apigateway-lambda';
import * as lambda from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda';

new CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda(this, 'test-cognito-apigateway-lambda', {
  lambdaFunctionProps: {
    code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(`lambda`),
    runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_16_X,
    handler: 'index.handler'
  }
});

Python

from aws_solutions_constructs.aws_cognito_apigateway_lambda import CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda
from aws_cdk import (
    aws_lambda as _lambda,
    Stack
)
from constructs import Construct

CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda(self, 'test-cognito-apigateway-lambda',
                            lambda_function_props=_lambda.FunctionProps(
                                code=_lambda.Code.from_asset('lambda'),
                                runtime=_lambda.Runtime.PYTHON_3_9,
                                handler='index.handler'
                            )
                            )

Java

import software.constructs.Construct;

import software.amazon.awscdk.Stack;
import software.amazon.awscdk.StackProps;
import software.amazon.awscdk.services.lambda.*;
import software.amazon.awscdk.services.lambda.Runtime;
import software.amazon.awsconstructs.services.cognitoapigatewaylambda.*;

new CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda(this, "test-cognito-apigateway-lambda",
        new CognitoToApiGatewayToLambdaProps.Builder()
                .lambdaFunctionProps(new FunctionProps.Builder()
                        .runtime(Runtime.NODEJS_16_X)
                        .code(Code.fromAsset("lambda"))
                        .handler("index.handler")
                        .build())
                .build());

If you are defining resources and methods on your API (e.g. proxy = false), then you must call addAuthorizers() after the API is fully defined to ensure every method is protected. Here is an example:

Typescript

import { Construct } from 'constructs';
import { Stack, StackProps } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
import { CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda } from '@aws-solutions-constructs/aws-cognito-apigateway-lambda';
import * as lambda from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda';

const construct = new CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda(this, 'test-cognito-apigateway-lambda', {
    lambdaFunctionProps: {
        code: lambda.Code.fromAsset(`lambda`),
        runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_16_X,
        handler: 'index.handler'
    },
    apiGatewayProps: {
        proxy: false
    }
});

const resource = construct.apiGateway.root.addResource('foobar');
resource.addMethod('POST');

// Mandatory to call this method to Apply the Cognito Authorizers on all API methods
construct.addAuthorizers();

Python

from aws_solutions_constructs.aws_cognito_apigateway_lambda import CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda
from aws_cdk import (
    aws_lambda as _lambda,
    aws_apigateway as api,
    Stack
)
from constructs import Construct
from typing import Any

# Overriding LambdaRestApiProps with type Any
gateway_props = dict[Any, Any]

construct = CognitoToApiGatewayToLambda(self, 'test-cognito-apigateway-lambda',
                                        lambda_function_props=_lambda.FunctionProps(
                                            code=_lambda.Code.from_asset(
                                                'lambda'),
                                            runtime=_lambda.Runtime.PYTHON_3_9,
                                            handler='index.handler'
                                        ),
                                        api_gateway_props=gateway_props(
                                            proxy=False
                                        )
                                        )

resource = construct.api_gateway.root.add_resource('foobar')
resource.add_method('POST')

# Mandatory to call this method to Apply the Cognito Authorizers on all API methods
construct.add_authorizers()

  • Deploy an edge-optimized API endpoint
  • Enable CloudWatch logging for API Gateway
  • Configure least privilege access IAM role for API Gateway
  • Set the default authorizationType for all API methods to Cognito User Pool
  • Enable X-Ray Tracing

AWS Lambda Function

  • Configure limited privilege access IAM role for Lambda function
