Amplify multi region app

Question

I need help to deploy the app in multiple regions. I created an Amplify app in ca-central-1 and now I would like to deploy it to ap-northeast-1 (both app sharing the same table).

I created a replica of the table to ap-northeast-1. After that, I created an appsync api using the global table as the data source with CDK and deployed it to ap-northeast-1. How can I create an Amplify app with an existing appsync api?

I don't know if I'm on the right track. What is the proper way to deploy the app in multiple regions?

Hey @stam0912, thank you for reaching out. I would suggest posting this in our Amplify discord community as the community of developers using Amplify may suggest alternatives and their implementation on your use case.

But you can you can utilize the Amplify.configure to pass in your existing API and config to reuse your existing or if you have an existing amplify_configuration.json you could utilize this to deploy in a new region.
