@Jeremias: From the user's point of view, the invocation is "anonymous". In fact, this means: The owner of the action pays and throttles of that owner apply as usual.

i like that this gives me a stable/predictable route, so that i don't
have to keep around a registry of endpoints in my deployment scripts -- as i would if the routes were exposed with a random-ish hash in them. where do you get random-ish hashes today? you mean the api gw integration? If so, I agree that is sub-optimal and should be addressed there as well.

Haven't looked at the implementation yet but I really dig the idea! Are query parameters forwarded to the action as well? - mt Von meinem iPhone gesendet > Am 12.01.2017 um 23:44 schrieb Rodric Rabbah <rod...@gmail.com>: > > I just opened a pull request to allow actions to be accessible viaa
