Work in Progress
This blog post is a work in progress. However, the outcome is a demonstration of using an AWS API Gateway, KMS, and Lambda to exchange a Sigv4/Sigv4a signed request for a JSON Web Token (JWT). An exchange for a JWT helps AWS native workloads interact with external services using a common JWT authentication method without the need to manage static credentials.
