Import an edge-optimized API into API Gateway
You can import an API's OpenAPI definition file to create a new edge-optimized API by
specifying the EDGE endpoint type as an additional input, besides the OpenAPI
file, to the import operation. You can do so using the API Gateway console, AWS CLI, or an AWS SDK.
For a tutorial on using the Import API feature from the API Gateway console, see Tutorial: Create a REST API by importing an example.

Import an edge-optimized API using the AWS CLI
To import an API from an OpenAPI definition file to create a new edge-optimized API
using the AWS CLI, use the import-rest-api command as follows:
aws apigateway import-rest-api \ --fail-on-warnings \ --body 'file://path/to/API_OpenAPI_template.json'
or with an explicit specification of the endpointConfigurationTypes query
string parameter to EDGE:
aws apigateway import-rest-api \ --parameters endpointConfigurationTypes=EDGE \ --fail-on-warnings \ --body 'file://path/to/API_OpenAPI_template.json'
