In some cases, for security or internal policy reasons, you may prefer not to give Aissist direct access to your information systems. A simple solution is to create a lightweight API that grants restricted access, controls what data can be retrieved, filters or processes it as needed, and defines exactly what output Aissist can use.
One great tool for this is AWS Lambda β a serverless platform that lets you run code without worrying about server management, scaling, or load balancing. Itβs cost-effective (you only pay for what you use) and easy to set up, making it a perfect choice for creating a simple RESTful API for Aissist.
In this tutorial, we'll show you how to build a basic AWS Lambda function that fetches booking information from your internal database.
π Secure Access Control β Only expose the necessary data.
β‘ Fast and Scalable β Lambda scales automatically with no server setup.
π° Cost-Effective β Pay only for the compute time you use.
π§ Flexible β Customize your output for exactly what Aissist needs.
After setting up the Shopify integration and actions, you can use the Action Debugger to test and verify that everything is working correctly.
