Structures Passed by API Gateway to Backend

Last updated: 2023-12-22 10:07:20

    Overview

    When a client sends requests to API Gateway, API Gateway will process the requested content and then pass it to the backend. In this case, the structures that API Gateway passes to the backend are generally fixed. This document describes the structures passed by API Gateway to different types of backends to facilitate development and troubleshooting.

    Structure for Public URLs/IP and VPC Resource Backends

    GET / HTTP/1.1
    Host: 10.0.0.0
    Connection: keep-alive
    X-Client-Proto: http
    X-Client-Proto-Ver: HTTP/1.1
    X-Forwarded-For: 100.100.10.1
    X-Real-IP: 100.100.10.1
    User-Agent: curl/7.29.0
    Accept: /
    x-b3-traceid: 12345678906f******7cd8db0fe843dc
    X-Api-RequestId: 12345678906f******7cd8db0fe843dc
    X-Api-Scheme: http
    The data structure is described as follows:
    Element
    Description
    Host
    Specifies the virtual host.
    Connection
    Determines whether to keep the network open when the current request is completed.
    X-Client-Proto
    Records client request protocol.
    X-Client-Proto-Ver
    Records client request protocol version.
    X-Forwarded-For
    Records every IP address accessed after the request is initiated by the client.
    X-Real-IP
    Records the real IP address of client request.
    User-Agent
    Records client request agent.
    Accept
    Represents the type of data the client wants to accept.
    x-b3-traceid
    Records the RequestId of this request. It is equivalent to X-Api-RequestId and is used to adapt to the internal module of API Gateway.
    X-Api-RequestId
    Records the RequestId of this request.
    X-Api-Scheme
    Records the client request protocol. It is equivalent to X-Client-Proto and is used to adapt to the internal module of API Gateway.
    Note:
    As the request body structure varies depending on Content-Type and the client request may have custom headers, this document lists only the fixed request headers passed by API Gateway.

    The data structure is described as follows:
    Element
    Description
    requestContext
    Configuration information, request ID, authentication information, and source information about API Gateway where the request comes from.
    serviceId, path, and httpMethod are the service ID, API path, and method of API Gateway, respectively.
    stage indicates the environment of the request source API.
    requestId indicates the unique ID of the current request.
    identity indicates the user's authentication method and information.
    sourceIp identifies the request source IP.
    path
    Records the complete path of the actual request.
    httpMethod
    Records the HTTP method of the actual request.
    queryString
    Records the complete query content of the actual request.
    body
    Records the content of the actual request after being converted into a string.
    headers
    Records the complete headers of the actual request.
    pathParameters
    Records the path parameters configured in API Gateway and their actual values.
    queryStringParameters
    Records the query parameters configured in API Gateway and their actual values.
    headerParameters
    Records the header parameters configured in API Gateway and their actual values.
    isBase64Encoded
