Hey, could you ensure if the amplify-export-manifest.json contains the AppSyncApiName parameter present with a value.

[redjonzaci]

it does, and i made no manual changes to what is generated by amplify export

Hey @redjonzaci, tried reproducing this error with a sample API but could not reproduce this error. If you could share a zip of exported folder on a discord I can try to reproduce the error message and dive into possible mitigation steps.
