aws.lambda.Alias

Explore with Pulumi AI

Creates a Lambda function alias. Creates an alias that points to the specified Lambda function version.

For information about Lambda and how to use it, see What is AWS Lambda? For information about function aliases, see CreateAlias and AliasRoutingConfiguration in the API docs.

Example Usage

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

const testLambdaAlias = new aws.lambda.Alias("test_lambda_alias", {
    name: "my_alias",
    description: "a sample description",

    functionVersion: "1",
    routingConfig: {
        additionalVersionWeights: {
            "2": 0.5,
        },
    },
});
