Hey everyone Quick question When creating an API for SuperTokens in API Gateway should I create an HTTP or a REST API

rp · Answer

Which API gateway < Demna>

Demna · Answer

I m following the AWS Lambda guide but the API Gateway configuration part starts from configuring an existing API so I was wondering whether I should create a REST or HTTP API I went with REST but I ve yet to test it

rp · Answer

If you are using JWT authorizer then you should use HTTP Else I think REST should work but this will require a custom lambda authorizer for which we have a guide too

Demna · Answer

I m using sessions so I ll go with REST Thanks

rp · Answer

Cool So you will have to use custom lambda authorizer

Demna · Answer

BTW `auth js` and `user js` go into separate projects as separate Lambda functions right So I can tell one Lambda to use `auth handler` and the other `user handler`

Demna · Answer

And associate GET requests with one and POST with the other

rp · Answer

idk about separate projects but separate functions sure

Demna · Answer

Yeah pretty much

Demna · Answer

So I have to use Lambda authorizers I was hoping since both it JWT and session verification are grouped under the same umbrella I d go with the easiest one session verification and save myself the headache I guess that won t work out

Demna · Answer

I mean this umbrella

rp · Answer

The easier one is JWT authoriser But for that you will have to use HTTP and NOT REST
