Building an Authenticated GraphQL API on AWS with CDK - Enabling Admin Privileges and Multi-auth

In this video I will create an AWS AppSync API with AWS CDK to build out a product API for a basic E Commerce backend. The API will enable multiple authorization scenarios - both public and private access - to enable unauthenticated users to read and authenticated users who are part of an Admin group to create, update and delete products.
