🆕 Step Functions HTTP Endpoints #aws #amazonwebservices #stepfunctions #errorhandling #serverless

In re:Invent 2023 we announced one of the most requested features for AWS Step Functions, that is being able to call directly from a workflow an HTTP endpoint.

This was missing from Step Functions, because in the past, if we wanted to call an endpoint, we have to invoke a Lambda function that was wrapping a call to an endpoint.

Why not to do it directly from the workflow and enjoy all the benefits that Step Functions provide out of the box like retries, timeouts, and all kinds of error handling, and re-drive.
