In addition, Amplify CLI enables you to add existing Lambda layers to your Lambda functions by referencing existing Lambda layer ARNs. Amplify CLI’s Lambda layer support also provides access management out-of-the-box enabling you to keep your Lambda layer private or share it with other users in AWS.
Refer to a full guide for how to create & use Lambda layers in our blog post.
To get started, install the Amplify CLI and run amplify add function.
