Hey everyone, I’m new to Pulumi and also to aws. I want to create some lambda functions for handling the user authentication for the Twitter API (oauth1.0a) Now I wonder what’s the difference between
awsx.apigateway.API
and
cloud.API

@witty-shampoo-9794 awsx is an abstracted that Pulumi created to make some commonly used resources easily in a couple of lines of code. So
awsx.apigateway.API
is already an abstraction. Can you link me where you found
cloud.API
?

@fancy-spoon-7206 that’s what is so confusing. As you said,
awsx.apigateway.API
is already an abstraction, so I can only guess, that
@pulumi/cloud-aws
is an abstraction over more services? I first found it here https://www.pulumi.com/docs/tutorials/cloudfx/rest-api/
Doesn’t anyone here know the difference?
