04/01/2021, 4:59 AMUsing the AppSyncApi construct, it does not appear the underlying GraphqlApi is available. Unless I am missing something there is no way to output its properties? I am trying to output graphql url and api key.

I ran into this. It looks like the recent cdk version doesn’t expose the url anymore. Only the api Id.

04/01/2021, 1:32 PMAre you sure? I can access the properties using the aws appsync construct. Also, not using the latest I am on 1.94.1.

const api = new appSync.GraphqlApi(this, 'Api', {name: "api"})
new cdk.CfnOutput(this, "GraphqlUrl", {
value: api.graphqlUrl
});Mike McCall
04/01/2021, 1:39 PMI see it's of type IGraphqlApi, Would it make more sense for this to be of type GraphqlApi?

Yeah I think that might be the issue.

@Frank take a look when you get a chance.

@Mike McCall The
AppSyncApiappsync.GraphqlApi Copy code
new AppSyncApi(this, "GraphqlApi", {
graphqlApi: appsync.GraphqlApi.fromGraphqlApiAttributes(this, "IGraphqlApi", {
graphqlApiId,
}),
resolvers: {
"Query listNotes": "src/list.main",
"Mutation createNote": "src/create.main",
},
});m

04/01/2021, 5:07 PMok, so you recommend creating the api with cdk construct and passing that in? Aren’t you casting this.appSyncApi as GraphqlApi?

When you import like this,
appsync.GraphqlApi.fromGraphqlApiAttributesIGraphqlApim
Mike McCall
04/01/2021, 5:08 PMThe problem is I can’t access properties that are part of GraphqlApi but not IGraphqlApi such as apiUrl.

04/01/2021, 5:13 PM
right.. so the problem is:
• when ppl are not importing,
sst.AppSyncApiappsync.GraphqlApiGraphqlApiappsync.IGraphqlApiIGraphqlApiIGraphqlApiFrank
04/01/2021, 5:13 PM
So there are 2 solutions:
Frank
04/01/2021, 5:15 PM
• you can do
(this.appSyncApi as appsync.GraphqlApi).graphqlUrlthis.appSyncApiappsync.GraphqlApiFrank
04/01/2021, 5:17 PM
Let me know if I’m explaining this well. 😂
m
Mike McCall
04/01/2021, 5:19 PMthe first option is fine with me, however, I do feel the behavior shouldn’t change between cdk and what sst appsync returns for the appsyncapi property
f
Frank
04/01/2021, 5:22 PM
Yeah that makes sense. Importing an existing AppSyncApi is a rare use case. Let’s go with the latter solution.
Frank
04/01/2021, 5:23 PM
Let me put in the change, cut a release.

04/01/2021, 5:24 PMAwesome.
