AWS API Gateway not found - aws-lambda

Question

Im brand new to AWS API Gateways and Lambda. I am trying to get the basic 'Hello from Lambda!' function to work.
I can sign in successfully as below:
const user = await Auth.signIn(email, password);
I get A token back which is correct as I tested it on the AWS API console and got the response
//token works as tested on AWS Console (API Tester)
const token = user2.signInUserSession.idToken.jwtToken
I assume that the request info is correct as the token is correct:
const requestInfo = {
headers: {
Authorization: token
}
}
I think the error is here as whenever I try to do anything with the 'Data' I don't get a response
const data = await API.get('API_NAME','/hello',requestInfo)
console.log('This is the Data: ',{ data } )
The Error I get in the try/catch Xcode is:
'API API_NAME does not exist'
any suggestions?
Error I get when I run Amplify Push:

Answer 1

As you can sign in successfully I suppose you've configured Amplify something like this specifying AWS poolId, clientId etc.
Similarly you've to do for APIs also like documented here
This is the format, suppose API name is account.
Amplify.configure({
Auth: { ... },
API: {
endpoints: [
{
name: 'account', // name of API like 'account', no '/'
endpoint: BASE_URL, // like 'https://api_name.com', don't put '/' at the end
region: 'us-east-1', // your region like 'us-east-1', 'ap-southeast-1' etc.
},
... // Other APIs
]
}
});
Then when you call the API this would be the format
const accountRes: AccountData = await API.get('account', '/account', requestInfo);
NOTE:- If API name is same but request type is different (GET, POST, PUT etc.) you don't need to do multiple entries, You can simply call respective method for the request API.get(), API.post(), API.put() etc.
