' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Dim rest As New Chilkat.Rest

' Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server.
' such as https://email.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/
Dim bTls As Boolean = True
Dim port As Integer = 443
Dim bAutoReconnect As Boolean = True

' Note: The source of the lambda function (hosted on AWS) is shown at the bottom of this page.

' If your lambda function URL is: https://itwxyj3vd6gjtaerbfqnfccs2e0fplzh.lambda-url.us-west-2.on.aws/
' then use just the domain part here:
success = rest.Connect("itwxyj3vd6gjtaerbfqnfccs2e0fplzh.lambda-url.us-west-2.on.aws",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)

' Provide AWS credentials for the REST call.
Dim authAws As New Chilkat.AuthAws

authAws.SecretKey = "AWS_SECRET_KEY"
' the region should match our domain above..

authAws.ServiceName = "lambda"

rest.SetAuthAws(authAws)

Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
