Configure Authenticator for REST API

Serverless Framework
,

I am trying to configure an authorizer for my REST API but something just isn’t right. I followed the instructions of a SO post that instructed to do it like so:

functions:
  RequestUnicorn:
      handler: src/backend/requestUnicorn.handler
      events:
       - http:
            path: /rides  
            method: post    
            cors: true
            integration: lambda
            authorizer:
              name: wildrydez
              arn: arn:aws:cognito-idp:eu-central-1:183224933160:userpool/eu-central-1_HkrGy1GOi

I double-checked the arn of the pool after I deployed the app though no Authorizer is visible in the API Gateway

During my research I stumbled upon Fernandos article about Authorizers for HTTP APIs. Following his instructions I got the example working but I can’t map it to my use case, as I need a REST API.

Has anyone achieved this with serverless 1.70?

I used Dehli’s answer in the same SO post that I referenced in my initial question:
