Changing AWS API GATEWAY Resource Name - Using the CLI

One of these days i had to rename a resource name on the AWS API GATEWAY, so here are the steps needed. In order to change your resource name you need to run 3 commands on the cli. One to get your API ID, one to get the Resource ID and one last command to change its name.

First lets gonna find the ID of the desired API. Using the aws cli type the following command:
aws apigateway get-rest-apis
The API will return a json with an array of items containing all of your apis. Look into the name property to find the api that have the resource you need to change. Right above the name property you have the id property of your api. Take note of this id and run the following command with it to get the resource id.
aws apigateway get-resources --rest-api-id 1010101010
Get the id matching the resource path that you are looking for to run the final command thats going to change your resource name.
aws apigateway update-rest-api --rest-api-id 1010101010 --patch-operations op=replace,path=/pathPart,value=path-new-name
Note that pathPart stays as is. Do not change its value. You only need to change the last one, replacing path-new-name with the name that you want.

How to use Splunk SPL commands to write better queries - Part I

Introduction As a software engineer, we are quite used to deal with logs in our daily lives, but in addition to ensuring that the necessary logs are being sent by the application itself or through a service mesh, we often have to go a little further and interact with some log tool to extract more meaningful data. This post is inspired by a problem I had to solve for a client who uses Splunk as their main data analysis tool and this is the first in a series of articles where we will delve deeper and learn how to use different Splunk commands. Running Splunk with Docker To run Splunk with docker, just run the following command: docker run -d —rm -p 8000:8000 -e SPLUNK_START_ARGS=--accept-license -e SPLUNK_PASSWORD=SOME_PASSWORD --name splunk splunk/splunk:latest Sample Data We are going to use the sample data provided by Splunk. You can find more information and download the zip file from their web site . How does it work? In order to be able to interact with Splunk t...

How to run OPA in Docker

From the introduction of the openpolicyagent.org site: OPA generates policy decisions by evaluating the query input against policies and data. In this post i am going to show you an easy and fast way to test your policies by running OPA in Docker. First, make sure you have already installed Docker and have it running: docker ps Inside your choosen directory, create two files. One called input.json file for your system representation and one file called example.rego for your rego policy rules. Add the following content to your json file: Add the following content for the example.rego: Each violation block represents the rule that you want to validate your system against. The first violation block checks if any of the system servers have the http protocol in it. If that is the case, the server id is added to the array. In the same way, the second violation block checks for the servers that have the telnet protocol in it and if it finds a match the server id is also...

API GATEWAY: THE CLOUDFRONT 403 FORBIDDEN ERROR

If you are having a 403 Forbidden error from CloudFront , that means your domain name is not linked to your CloudFront distribution and because CloudFront stays in front of your API GATEWAY you need to create a CNAME record pointing your domain name to your CloudFront target domain name in order for it to work. So, If you need to point your api to a custom domain name, all you have to do is following those 2 easy steps: 1 - CREATING YOUR CUSTOM DOMAIN NAME Go to the API GATEWAY console and click on the Custom Domain Name menu. Click on the Create Custom Domain Name button. Next, assign a certificate matching the same domain name you are creating and map to the root path and destination of your desired api. Lastly, copy the CloudFront Target Domain Name . You will need to paste that in your Route 53 record. 2 - CREATING A CNAME RECORD ON ROUTE 53 Create a CNAME record on Route 53 for the same custom domain name, assigning to it the CloudFront Target Domain.
