Configure Amplify categories

When using the Amplify CLI, the amplifyconfiguration.json file gets created and updated automatically for you based upon the resources you have added and configured.

If you are not using the Amplify CLI or need to override these settings, this documentation shows the available configuration properties for each category.

If you are working with an older project, you can also review the configuration properties for the previous version for your chosen framework or language.

General configuration

The Amplify.configure() configuration can generally be included in your project entrypoint file (i.e. /src/main.js). It takes in two parameters - ResourcesConfig and LibraryOptions.

Amplify.configure({ ...resourcesConfig }, { ...libraryOptions });
