It can be difficult to create a REST API in Golang using AWS Cognito, particularly when dealing with problems that the AWS SDK returns. Converting AWS SDK error answers into structured HTTP codes and JSON formats is a frequent problem that developers encounter, and this guide tackles it. Developers can simplify their error-handling logic and improve API accessibility by implementing custom error kinds and directly mapping error codes to HTTP statuses. This approach helps guarantee that every AWS issue is effectively recorded and transformed into a useful HTTP status code response for customers by avoiding laborious code structures like big switch statements.
