Amazon web services – AWS Amplify Gen 2 – DynamoDB and existing AppSync

I have a new Amplify Gen 2 project ( NextJS 14 app) that uses DynamoDB and also needs to access existing AppSync GraphGL API.

Existing API is added to the app first by running

amplify add codegen --apiId  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

and adding:

Amplify.configure({
    API: {
       GraphQL:{
           apiKey:"da2-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
           region:"us-east-1",
           defaultAuthMode: "apiKey",
           endpoint: "https://XXXXXXXXXXXXX.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/graphql"
       }
    }
});

I can’t figure out how to distinguish between two graphql endpoints. When the above code is added integration with DynamoDB stops working.

I can make one or the other work but not both at the same time.

Should it be possible to use AppSync and DynamoDB at the same time?

    Creating new API that was a "Merged APIs" of both of the other ones seems to be a way to fix this issue.

    Yes, it’s possible to use both AppSync and DynamoDB at the same time. You need to configure them separately in Amplify. For AppSync, you can use Amplify.API and for DynamoDB, you can use Amplify.DataStore or AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient if you’re using the AWS SDK directly.

    Example

    Amplify.configure({
    API: {
       GraphQL: {
           apiKey: "da2-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
           region: "us-east-1",
           defaultAuthMode: "apiKey",
           endpoint: "https://XXXXXXXXXXXXX.appsync-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/graphql"
       }
    },
    DataStore: {
        // Your DataStore configuration here
    }
});
