Amazon API Gateway supports mock integration responses, which are predefined responses that can be returned without sending requests to a backend service. Mock integration responses can be used for testing or prototyping purposes, or for simulating different backend responses based on certain conditions. A request mapping template can be used to select a mock integration response based on an expression that evaluates some aspects of the request, such as headers, query strings, or body content. This solution does not require any additional resources or code changes and has the least operational overhead. Reference: Set up mock integrations for an API Gateway REST API
