---

deploymentStage

Type: Stage

API Gateway stage that points to the latest deployment (if defined).

If deploy is disabled, you will need to explicitly assign this value in order to set up integrations.

---

env

Type: ResourceEnvironment

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

---

node

Type: ConstructNode

The construct tree node associated with this construct.

---

restApiId

Type: string

The ID of this API Gateway RestApi.

---

restApiName

Type: string

A human friendly name for this Rest API.

Note that this is different from restApiId.

---

restApiRootResourceId

Type: string

The resource ID of the root resource.

---

root

Type: IResource

Represents the root resource of this API endpoint ('/').

Resources and Methods are added to this resource.

---

stack

Type: Stack

The stack in which this resource is defined.

---

cloudWatchAccount?

Type: CfnAccount (optional)

---

domainName?

Type: DomainName (optional)

The first domain name mapped to this API, if defined through the domainName configuration prop, or added via addDomainName.

---

latestDeployment?

Type: Deployment (optional)

API Gateway deployment that represents the latest changes of the API.

This resource will be automatically updated every time the REST API model changes. This will be undefined if deploy is false.

metricClientError(props?)	Metric for the number of client-side errors captured in a given period.
metricCount(props?)	Metric for the total number API requests in a given period.
metricIntegrationLatency(props?)	Metric for the time between when API Gateway relays a request to the backend and when it receives a response from the backend.
metricLatency(props?)	The time between when API Gateway receives a request from a client and when it returns a response to the client.
metricServerError(props?)	Metric for the number of server-side errors captured in a given period.

public addDomainName(id: string, options: DomainNameOptions): DomainName

Parameters

• id string — The construct id.
• options DomainNameOptions — custom domain options.

Returns
