Connection

Learn how to create, update, and manage AWS Events Connections using Alchemy Cloud Control.

The Connection resource allows you to manage AWS Events Connections that facilitate communication between AWS services and external systems.

Create a basic connection with essential properties and a description.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";
const basicConnection = await AWS.Events.Connection("myBasicConnection", {
name: "MyBasicConnection",
description: "This connection is used for basic event triggers.",
authorizationType: "API_KEY",
authParameters: {
apiKey: "myApiKey123"
}
});

Configure a connection with advanced options, including KMS key identifier and invocation connectivity parameters.

const advancedConnection = await AWS.Events.Connection("myAdvancedConnection", {
name: "MyAdvancedConnection",
description: "This connection includes advanced security configurations.",
authorizationType: "AWS_IAM",
kmsKeyIdentifier: "arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:123456789012:key/my-key-id",
invocationConnectivityParameters: {
connectTimeoutSeconds: 10,
readTimeoutSeconds: 30
},
authParameters: {
username: "myUsername",
password: "myPassword"
}
});

Connection with Custom Invocation Parameters

Section titled “Connection with Custom Invocation Parameters”

Create a connection that specifies custom invocation connectivity parameters for fine-tuned control over how events are processed.

const customInvocationConnection = await AWS.Events.Connection("myCustomInvocationConnection", {
name: "MyCustomInvocationConnection",
description: "This connection has specific invocation parameters.",
authorizationType: "API_KEY",
invocationConnectivityParameters: {
connectTimeoutSeconds: 15,
readTimeoutSeconds: 45,
maxRetries: 3
},
authParameters: {
apiKey: "myCustomApiKey123"
}
});

Set up a connection that uses a KMS key for enhanced security.

const encryptedConnection = await AWS.Events.Connection("myEncryptedConnection", {
name: "MyEncryptedConnection",
description: "This connection uses KMS for encrypting sensitive data.",
authorizationType: "AWS_IAM",
kmsKeyIdentifier: "arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/my-kms-key-id",
authParameters: {
oauthToken: "myOauthToken"
}
});
