Overview
AWS API service allows developers to create, maintain, publish, and monitor APIs. AfterShip supports AWS API gateway with IAM (Identity and access management) authentication as a webhook receiver. IAM authentication is a secure way of receiving webhook requests. It ensures that other members and entities have an appropriate level of access to critical resources.
Enable IAM authentication
Get IAM User Access Key and Secret Key.
Encode special characters in the URL as shown below:
Assemble encoded values as per below-mentioned format

Paste URL > Save changes.
Additional notes
AfterShip doesn't send the webhooks under the whitelist IPs for the AWS IAM Authentication webhook receiver gateway.
We need to verify the AWS gateway endpoint format for security and cost reasons. We don't support custom domains as of now.
