1. Create a Lambda function, because we want to work with Application Load Balancer, we need to give a different response from Lambda

Check: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/services-alb.html

exports.handler = async (event) => {
    console.log(\'event\', event);
    // TODO implement
    const response = {
        "statusCode": 200,
        "statusDescription": "200 OK",
        "isBase64Encoded": false,
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": "text/html"
        },
        "body": "<h1>Hello from Lambda!</h1>"
    };
    return response;
};

 

2. Create "Target Groups", because Lambda must be inside a Target Group in order to work with ALB.

 

3. After Target Group becomes `Active`, we can open DNA name in broswer and we should see `Hello from Lambda!` in the page

 

4. Enable "Multi-values header" in Target Group

 

5. in browser, we can enable url like `http://myalb-labmda-xxxxxx.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com/?name=foo&name=bar`

Noice that it downs the response, but actually we don\'t want that, we need to modify Lambda response according to:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticloadbalancing/latest/application/lambda-functions.html#multi-value-headers-response

exports.handler = async (event) => {
    console.log(\'event\', event);
    // TODO implement
    const response = {
        "statusCode": 200,
        "statusDescription": "200 OK",
        "isBase64Encoded": false,
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": "text/html"
        },
        "multiValueHeaders": {
              "Set-cookie": ["cookie-name=cookie-value;Domain=myweb.com;Secure;HttpOnly","cookie-name=cookie-value;Expires=May 8, 2019"],
              "Content-Type": ["text/html"]
        },
        "body": "<h1>Hello from Lambda!</h1>"
    };
    return response;
};
