How do we post a GraphQL request through AWS AppSync using boto?
Ultimately I'm trying to mimic a mobile app accessing our stackless/cloudformation stack on AWS, but with python. Not javascript or amplify.
The primary pain point is authentication; I've tried a dozen different ways already. This the current one, which generates a "401" response with "UnauthorizedException" and "Permission denied", which is actually pretty good considering some of the other messages I've had. I'm now using the 'aws_requests_auth' library to do the signing part. I assume it authenticates me using the stored /.aws/credentials from my local environment, or does it?
I'm a little confused as to where and how cognito identities and pools will come into it. eg: say I wanted to mimic the sign-up sequence?
Anyways the code looks pretty straightforward; I just don't grok the authentication.
from aws_requests_auth.boto_utils import BotoAWSRequestsAuth
APPSYNC_API_KEY = 'inAppsyncSettings'
APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://aaaaaaaaaaaavzbke.appsync-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/graphql'
headers = {
'Content-Type': "application/graphql",
'x-api-key': APPSYNC_API_KEY,
'cache-control': "no-cache",
}
query = """{
GetUserSettingsByEmail(email: "john@washere"){
items {name, identity_id, invite_code}
}
}"""
def test_stuff():
# Use the library to generate auth headers.
auth = BotoAWSRequestsAuth(
aws_host='aaaaaaaaaaaavzbke.appsync-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com',
aws_region='ap-southeast-2',
aws_service='appsync')
# Create an http graphql request.
response = requests.post(
APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL,
json={'query': query},
auth=auth,
headers=headers)
print(response)
# this didn't work:
# response = requests.post(APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL, data=json.dumps({'query': query}), auth=auth, headers=headers)
Yields
{
"errors" : [ {
"errorType" : "UnauthorizedException",
"message" : "Permission denied"
} ]
}

It's quite simple--once you know. There are some things I didn't appreciate:
I've assumed IAM authentication
There are a number of ways for appsync to handle authentication. We're using IAM so that's what I need to deal with, yours might be different.Boto doesn't come into it.
We want to issue a request like any regular punter, they don't use boto, and neither do we. Trawling the AWS boto docs was a waste of time.Use the AWS4Auth library
We are going to send a regular http request to aws, so whilst we can use python requests they need to be authenticated--by attaching headers. And, of course, AWS auth headers are special and different from all others. You can try to work out how to do it yourself, or you can go looking for someone else who has already done it: Aws_requests_auth, the one I started with, probably works just fine, but I have ended up with AWS4Auth. There are many others of dubious value; none endorsed or provided by Amazon (that I could find).Specify
appsyncas the "service"
What service are we calling? I didn't find any examples of anyone doing this anywhere. All the examples are trivial S3 or EC2 or even EB which left uncertainty. Should we be talking to api-gateway service? Whatsmore, you feed this detail into the AWS4Auth routine, or authentication data. Obviously, in hindsight, the request is hitting Appsync, so it will be authenticated by Appsync, so specify "appsync" as the service when putting together the auth headers.
It comes together as:
import requests
from requests_aws4auth import AWS4Auth
# Use AWS4Auth to sign a requests session
session = requests.Session()
session.auth = AWS4Auth(
# An AWS 'ACCESS KEY' associated with an IAM user.
'AKxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx2A',
# The 'secret' that goes with the above access key.
'kwWxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxgEm',
# The region you want to access.
'ap-southeast-2',
# The service you want to access.
'appsync'
)
# As found in AWS Appsync under Settings for your endpoint.
APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://nqxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxke'
'.appsync-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/graphql'
# Use JSON format string for the query. It does not need reformatting.
query = """
query foo {
GetUserSettings (
identity_id: "ap-southeast-2:8xxxxxxb-7xx4-4xx4-8xx0-exxxxxxx2"
){
user_name, email, whatever
}}"""
# Now we can simply post the request...
response = session.request(
url=APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL,
method='POST',
json={'query': query}
)
print(response.text)
Which yields
# Your answer comes as a JSON formatted string in the text attribute, under data.
{"data":{"GetUserSettings":{"user_name":"0xxxxxxx3-9102-42f0-9874-1xxxxx7dxxx5"}}}
Getting credentials
To get rid of the hardcoded key/secret you can consume the local AWS ~/.aws/config and ~/.aws/credentials, and it is done this way...
credentials = boto3.session.Session().get_credentials()
...
credentials.access_key,
credentials.secret_key,
credentials.token
boto3.session.Session().region_name
This does seem to respect the environment variable AWS_PROFILE for assuming different roles.
Note that STS.get_session_token is not the way to do it, as it may try to assume a role from a role, depending where it keyword matched the AWS_PROFILE value. Labels in the credentials file will work because the keys are right there, but names found in the config file do not work, as that assumes a role already.

You can set up an API key on the AppSync end and use the code below. This works for my case.
import requests
from requests_aws4auth import AWS4Auth
import boto3
# establish a session with requests session
session = requests.Session()
# As found in AWS Appsync under Settings for your endpoint.
APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL = 'https://vxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxy.appsync-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/graphql'
# setup the query string (optional)
query = """query listItemsQuery {listItemsQuery {items {correlation_id, id, etc}}}"""
# Now we can simply post the request...
response = session.request(
url=APPSYNC_API_ENDPOINT_URL,
method='POST',
headers={'x-api-key': '<APIKEYFOUNDINAPPSYNCSETTINGS>'},
json={'query': query}
)
print(response.json()['data'])
