So AWS just released private endpoints for API Gateway: [https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/introducing-amazon-api-gateway-private-endpoints/](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/introducing-amazon-api-gateway-private-endpoints/)

Being a serverless novice, I was just curious if we’ll have to wait for serverless to support this or is there a way to hack the yml config to start using it. Also, I know it’s literally the next day, but what is the timeline for implementing it?

Thanks !

If there is CloudFormation support for private endpoints then you can use it today because Serverless allows you to override the resource it generates.

This is best asked on the Github project. You may also need to create an issue to add support.

okay, thanks, I may post this feature request on github. I’ll also look into writing some cloudformation and putting that in the yml.

CloudFormation supports private endpoints.
