Integration

In the console tab, if you choose the name of your API, the Integration page appears:

It summarizes the steps for setting up your API and outlines the next steps for building a client application. The Integrate with your app section provides details for using the Amazon Amplify toolchain to automate the process of connecting your API with iOS, Android, and JavaScript applications through config and code generation. The Amplify toolchain provides full support for building projects from your local workstation including GraphQL provisioning and workflows for CI/CD.

The Client Samples section also lists sample client applications (e.g., JavaScript, iOS, Android) for testing an end-to-end experience. You can clone and download these samples, and the configuration file has the necessary information (such as your endpoint URL) you need to get started. Follow the instructions on the Amazon Amplify toolchain page to run your app.
