Can you programmatically refresh and retrieve an API key?
See original GitHub issueWhich Category is your question related to? Amplify API
Amplify CLI Version
3.0.10
You can use amplify -v to check the amplify cli version on your system
What AWS Services are you utilizing? Amplify
Provide additional details e.g. code snippets In my current project I wanted to implement a public API with “amplify add api”. As authorization method I chose API key, since anything else would bring much unneeded overhead. I set the API key expiration date to 365 days, but still I’d need a way to refresh the key on a regular basis automatically. Can you refresh the API key from the frontend or via a Lambda function without having to do sth manually in the AWS UI?

@no-creative-name If your workflow is coming from the CLI then using the lambda function which triggers the build would one solution to rotating the keys. This is something we are aware of as AppSync itself does not currently have an option to rotate the API key. Should you change the value in the AppSync console itself could cause issues as the CLI does not pull changes made to the resources themselves.
I’m going to close this issue for now and review this with the team.
Hello @no-creative-name A current workaround would be to toggle
