AWS API Gateway - Remove Stage Name From URI
You can do this with API Gateway Custom Domains. This allows you to optionally omit the stage name in the custom domain name mapping.
I was unable to use the custom domains approach in the accepted answer because my api gateway is already in use with the stage in the url. I needed to remove the stage for a particular route. For this example, this route: https://example.com/apple-app-site-association needs to hit api gateway route: https://example.com/v1/apple-app-site-association.
Using cloudfront,
in the Origins tab, create a new origin to point to the api gateway including the stage:
Origin Domain Name: example.com
Origin Path: /v1
Origin ID: (give this a unique name and note this for next step)
(Leave remaining settings as default or change as you require, I set Origin Protocol Policy: HTTPS Only
)
in the Behaviors tab, create a new behavior:
Path Pattern: /apple-app-site-association
Origin: (the Origin ID you set above)
(Leave remaining settings as default or change as you require)
