Well, I'm creating a AWS ApiGateway and I can't understand when I should use integration type HTTP_PROXY or VPC_LINK, both ask me URL to proxy.

I searched about it but can't found any concrect and simple example, when use one or other ?

API Gateway REST API allows proxy integrations to other endpoints via two methods.

  • HTTP_PROXY is for Public API endpoints only.

  • VPC_LINK allows us to integrate API Gateway with Private Endpoints exposed via NLB (not ALB)

API Gateway HTTP API also supports both public and private integrations

I'm setting up an HTTP AWS API Gateway with Lambda integrations. But I'm running into the issue Lambda integration requires integration_type = AWX_PROXY But it’s incompatible with connection_type = "VPC_LINK" which requires integration_type = "HTTP_PROXY". I can change to connection_type = "INTERNET" to make these compatible. But is this the only way?
