AWS User Keys API Gateway

Question

I have an application protocol interface on my AWS gateway. With multiple subscribers on it. Can we unique keys API keys for each user/customer. If not do I need to create that number of IAM users? Is this possible through programming and does it have any upper limit?

Answer 1

For identification you can generate one API key for each user. The upper limit is around 10000. For more information refer this link: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/welcome.html

F you want to give unique access to each subscriber to different resources, then you can use or create different IAM roles with varying levels. Upper limit here 250. For more information : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/permissions.html
