I have a aws api gateway hosted in mumbai(ap-south-1). I am trying to add a custom domain to the endpoint.
I created a ACM certificate in the same region and created a Custom Domain Name in the api gateway. The api gateway allowed me to use the ACM certificate only in regionalised(ap-south-1) endpoint configuration and not edge(us-east-1) optimised configuration. This is resulting in a target domain in the format as
*.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com
and not in the cloudfront format like
*.cloudfront.net
After creating the custom domain name(api.mydomain.com) I tried to add it to the hosted zone in route53.
When I try to Create Record Set using target domain in above format(*.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com), I am getting an error
The record set could not be saved because:
- Alias Target contains an invalid value.
I tried by creating the certificate in us-east-1 and creating an edge optimised endpoint. Here I got the cloudfront endpoint. But when I try to access the endpoint, I am getting forbidden exception.
