<@U03KMV3ACCA> 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` ?

<@U03KNBYAD3K> 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?
