TokenAuthorizer

class aws_cdk.aws_apigateway.TokenAuthorizer(scope, id, *, identity_source=None, validation_regex=None, handler, assume_role=None, authorizer_name=None, results_cache_ttl=None)

Bases: aws_cdk.aws_apigateway.Authorizer

Token based lambda authorizer that recognizes the caller’s identity as a bearer token, such as a JSON Web Token (JWT) or an OAuth token.

Based on the token, authorization is performed by a lambda function.

Resource

AWS::ApiGateway::Authorizer

Parameters

  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • identity_source (Optional[str]) – The request header mapping expression for the bearer token. This is typically passed as part of the header, in which case this should be method.request.header.Authorizer where Authorizer is the header containing the bearer token. Default: IdentitySource.header('Authorization')

  • validation_regex (Optional[str]) – An optional regex to be matched against the authorization token. When matched the authorizer lambda is invoked, otherwise a 401 Unauthorized is returned to the client. Default: - no regex filter will be applied.

  • handler (IFunction) – The handler for the authorizer lambda function. The handler must follow a very specific protocol on the input it receives and the output it needs to produce. API Gateway has documented the handler’s input specification {@link https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/api-gateway-lambda-authorizer-input.html | here} and output specification {@link https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/api-gateway-lambda-authorizer-output.html | here}.

  • assume_role (Optional[IRole]) – An optional IAM role for APIGateway to assume before calling the Lambda-based authorizer. The IAM role must be assumable by ‘apigateway.amazonaws.com’. Default: - A resource policy is added to the Lambda function allowing apigateway.amazonaws.com to invoke the function.

  • authorizer_name (Optional[str]) – An optional human friendly name for the authorizer. Note that, this is not the primary identifier of the authorizer. Default: - the unique construcrt ID

  • results_cache_ttl (Optional[Duration]) – How long APIGateway should cache the results. Max 1 hour. Disable caching by setting this to 0. Default: Duration.minutes(5)

env

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

Return type

ResourceEnvironment

node

The construct tree node associated with this construct.

Return type
