+# Private Amazon API Gateway with private custom domain name
+
+The AWS SAM template deploys a private Amazon API Gateway with a private custom domain name mapped to deployed stage. This template also create a Amazon Route53 A-Alias record in a private hosted zone to map the private custom domain name (e.g. `private.mydomain.com`) to the target VPC Endpoint DNS name. (e.g. `vpce-abcdefgh123456789-abcd1234.execute-api.us-east-1.vpce.amazonaws.com`).
+
+Learn more about this pattern at [Serverless Land Patterns](https://serverlessland.com/patterns/private-apigw-custom-domain)
+
+## Requirements
+
+* An [AWS account](https://signin.aws.amazon.com/signup?request_type=register) with an IAM user or role that has sufficient permissions to make the necessary AWS service calls and manage AWS resources.
+* [AWS CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-cliv2.html) installed and configured.
+* [Git Installed](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git).
+* [AWS Serverless Application Model](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-sam-cli-install.html) (AWS SAM) installed.
+* An [execute-api VPC Endpoint](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/privatelink/interface-endpoints.html).
+* A Route 53 [Private Hosted Zone](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/hosted-zones-private.html). (*You can also use Public Hosted Zone but it is recommnded to use Private Hosted Zone to make sure that the Domain Name is only resolvable from within the VPC*)
+* An SSL/TLS certificate in [AWS Certificate Manager](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/how-to-specify-certificate-for-custom-domain-name.html#how-to-specify-certificate-for-custom-domain-name-setup).
+
+## Deployment Instructions
+
+1. Create a new directory, navigate to that directory in a terminal and clone the GitHub repository:
+    ```bash
+    git clone https://github.com/aws-samples/serverless-patterns
+    ```
+2. Change directory to the pattern directory:
+    ```bash
+    cd serverless-patterns/private-apigw-custom-domain
+    ```
+3. From the command line, use AWS SAM to deploy the AWS resources for the pattern as specified in the template.yml file:
+    ```bash
+    sam deploy --guided
+    ```
+4. During the prompts:
+    - Enter **stack name** and desired **AWS Region**.
+    - Enter **DNS Name** of the **execute-api** VPC endpoint for the VpcEndpointDNSName parameter. (e.g. vpce-abcdefgh123456789-abcd1234.execute-api.us-east-1.vpce.amazonaws.com)
+    - Enter **Hosted Zone ID** of the **execute-api** VPC endpoint for the VPCEndpointHostedZoneID parameter. (This can be found along with the DNS Name of the VPC endpoing on the AWS Console.)
+    - Enter **Private Custom Domain Name** (e.g. private.mydomain.com) for the CustomDomainName parameter.
+    - Enter **ACM Certificate ARN** from the same region as Private Amazon API Gateway for the CertificateArn parameter. The certificate must cover the Private Custom Domain name entered in the previous step.
+    - Enter **Private Hosted Zone ID** that has the domain name you would like to use for the parameter PrivateHostedZoneId. 
+    - Allow SAM to create roles with the required permissions if needed.
+
+    Once you have run guided mode once, you can use `sam deploy` in future to use these defaults.
+
+1. Note the outputs from the SAM deployment process. This contain the curl command to test the Private Custom Domain Name.
+
+## Testing
+
+The stack will output the **Private Custom Domain Name**. You can use `curl` to send a HTTP request to the Private Custom Domain endpoint to test the correct mapping to your API.
+   
+```bash
+curl https://{PrivateCustomDomainName}/
+```
+
+## Cleanup
+ 
+1. Delete the stack
+    ```bash
+    sam delete
+    ```
+1. Confirm the stack has been deleted
+    ```bash
+    aws cloudformation list-stacks --query "StackSummaries[?contains(StackName,'STACK_NAME')].StackStatus"
+    ```
