Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

UpdateApiCache

Updates the cache for the GraphQL API.

Request Syntax

POST /apis/apiId/ApiCaches/update HTTP/1.1 Content-type: application/json { "apiCachingBehavior": "string", "healthMetricsConfig": "string", "ttl": number, "type": "string" }

URI Request Parameters

The request uses the following URI parameters.

apiId

The GraphQL API ID.

Required: Yes

Request Body

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

apiCachingBehavior

Caching behavior.

  • FULL_REQUEST_CACHING: All requests are fully cached.

  • PER_RESOLVER_CACHING: Individual resolvers that you specify are cached.

Type: String

Valid Values: FULL_REQUEST_CACHING | PER_RESOLVER_CACHING

Required: Yes

healthMetricsConfig

Controls how cache health metrics will be emitted to CloudWatch. Cache health metrics include:

  • NetworkBandwidthOutAllowanceExceeded: The network packets dropped because the throughput exceeded the aggregated bandwidth limit. This is useful for diagnosing bottlenecks in a cache configuration.

  • EngineCPUUtilization: The CPU utilization (percentage) allocated to the Redis process. This is useful for diagnosing bottlenecks in a cache configuration.

Metrics will be recorded by API ID. You can set the value to ENABLED or DISABLED.

Type: String

Valid Values: ENABLED | DISABLED

Required: No

ttl

TTL in seconds for cache entries.

Valid values are 1–3,600 seconds.

Type: Long

Required: Yes

type

The cache instance type. Valid values are

  • SMALL

  • MEDIUM

  • LARGE

  • XLARGE

  • LARGE_2X

  • LARGE_4X

  • LARGE_8X (not available in all regions)

  • LARGE_12X

Historically, instance types were identified by an EC2-style value. As of July 2020, this is deprecated, and the generic identifiers above should be used.

The following legacy instance types are available, but their use is discouraged:

  • T2_SMALL: A t2.small instance type.

  • T2_MEDIUM: A t2.medium instance type.

  • R4_LARGE: A r4.large instance type.

  • R4_XLARGE: A r4.xlarge instance type.

  • R4_2XLARGE: A r4.2xlarge instance type.

  • R4_4XLARGE: A r4.4xlarge instance type.

  • R4_8XLARGE: A r4.8xlarge instance type.

Type: String

Valid Values: T2_SMALL | T2_MEDIUM | R4_LARGE | R4_XLARGE | R4_2XLARGE | R4_4XLARGE | R4_8XLARGE | SMALL | MEDIUM | LARGE | XLARGE | LARGE_2X | LARGE_4X | LARGE_8X | LARGE_12X

Required: Yes
