Appwrite alternative to AWS Lambda + API Gateway

Such 60 requests per second are just per user, so you can have thousands of executions

TL;DR

The user is looking for an alternative to AWS Lambda + API Gateway and is seeking information on Appwrite's Execute Access and how to properly curl a function by domain. They are encountering an execution error and are wondering if they can have custom domains for individual functions. There is a feature request for this functionality. The user also asks if using functions or FastAPI is the best way to create an API for users. The support team recommends using functions for most cases, but server-side code with an API key should be used in cases with excessive requests. The limit of 60 requests per second is per user.

In the vast majority of cases that should be enough, however in some applications like server side triggering (for example, a server triggers multiple times a function, exceeding 60 requests) in such case you should use server side code with an API key who will not be limited

what is the best way to create an Api for users? Functions or fastAPI?

Now we do!

Functions!

Appwrite functions now support domains, making them RESTful

Nice

🙌

Is it in the cloud?

Yep!

RESTful functions were introduced in 1.4.

Appwrite cloud is on 1.4.3, which means it's available 😄

Ok so this is restful endpoint for cloud func here?

Yep exactly

Nice

Was wondering what that is

Wasn't really obvious at first 😄

Need to write issue for feature on this. 😄

Yeaahhhhh

Yeah, you can even have custom domain for individual functions

How can I proper curl an function by domain? I am trying following this example:

curl -X POST https://64d4d22db370ae41a32e.appwrite.global
\ -H "X-Custom-Header: 123"
\ -H "Content-Type: application/json"
\ -d '{"data":"this is json data"}'
