Document how to update AppSync API key

See original GitHub issue

$ amplify -v
1.6.6

It seems like the default DX if you add a GraphQL API w/ API key auth is that amplify push stops working after 7 days. I can create a new API key in AppSync Settings page, but I’m not finding documentation about how to give the new key to amplify.

Alternatively, if amplify auto generated new keys to use, that’d be better. Looks like was added with #446, but it’s either not working or not enabled by default.

@kaustavghosh06 Does anyone have any updates on a solid fix for this please? I have tried all of the suggestions on this thread as well as the reference above (#954) and none of them have worked. The only solution that I have at the minute is to completely delete my entire amplify setup every week and then recreate it. Obviously this is less than ideal, and will not work at all in production. Does anyone know if AWS are thinking of fixing this issue? Surely this should be top of the list, as it is a huge flaw in the system and makes Amplify completely unusable?

As mentioned here, I had to set CreateAPIKey to 0, do a push, and then set it back to 1 and push again. This worked!

The property should be added in amplify/backend/api/<project-name>/parameters.json
