Field | Description |
Alias | The alias name of the proxy server. An alias name must be unique across API Gateway. The alias name cannot include a space, nor can it include the following characters: # % ? ' " < \ The alias name cannot begin with the string http:// or https:// |
Port number | The port number to use when accessing the API. When API Gateway receives a request that contains a URL alias,API Gateway resolves the request destination by first determining if there is a URL path associated with the incoming port. If there is no URL path mapped to the port number, then API Gateway uses the default URL path for the alias as the request destination. The port mappings are always evaluated first. Because the URL path can be different for each port, using port mappings allows the use of a single URL alias with multiple destinations. Each port can have only one URL path mapping. You can add port mappings to multiple destinations by clicking the +Add button. |
URL path | The URL path for the URL alias and for port number mapped for the URL alias. The URL path cannot include a space or the following characters: # % ? ’ “ < \ |
Default URL path | The URL path to the API on API Gateway. You must specify the default URL path if you do not define any port mappings for the URL alias. If the URL alias includes port mappings, the Default URL Path field is optional. The URL path cannot include a space or the following characters: # % ? ’ “ < \ |
