Hi,
I have a publicly available API GW Websockets, I have a lambda and ec2 instance in a VPC in a public subnet with IGW and correct routing tables. I have all security groups opened but when I try to post_to_connection
using boto3.client('apigatewaymanagementapi')
the connection timeouts in Lambda, or I get this error in EC2 when I run
$ aws apigatewaymanagementapi post-to-connection --data 'hello' --connection-id 'OuoMyd3eDoECJpQ=' --region eu-west-1
Could not connect to the endpoint URL: "https://execute-api.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/@connections/OuoMyd3eDoECJpQ%3D
Not sure what's wrong, I tried putting the EC2 into a private subnet with a NAT gateway and VCPE endpoint for API GW but no luck.
EDIT:
I found the issue with the aws-cli command, I actually had to specify the endpoint_url
pointing to the connection_url
of the API GW. This works, but for some reason I still can't post any messages from within the lambda which is on the same VPC and public subnet.
this worked, thank you! you're a champ!
