Hi everyone!
Sorry for not providing an update for a while. This is not currently being worked on, and currently not planed. The label
p1
means it is something we want to add to the AWS CDK, and it will get a higher priority in our planing. As for the “when”, I don’t have an answer, we are currently focused on v2 and it is unlikely we will get to this before v2 release.@cmckni3 It does! I will look into what is required to add this to the cdk. Thanks!
