CreateAlias

Creates an alias for a Lambda function version. Use aliases to provide clients with a function identifier that you can update to invoke a different version.

You can also map an alias to split invocation requests between two versions. Use the RoutingConfig parameter to specify a second version and the percentage of invocation requests that it receives.

POST /2015-03-31/functions/FunctionName/aliases HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/json

{
   "Description": "string",
