No Rest API found. Caching settings will not be updated. when using shared API GW about serverless-api-gateway-caching

Hey @DianaIonita, thanks for looking into this. We were pretty much in a rush to get this working with our project, so we ended up just making a fork with a quick patch branch which worked for us https://github.com/doubly/serverless-api-gateway-caching/tree/skip-restapi-check . This was really just a band-aid solution where we added skipRestAPICheck as a custom option that allowed us to ship this to production.

Since our project is not open source, I've created a minimum needed setup repo which is using our fork and branch of the plugin and deploys successfully https://github.com/mzmiric5/sls-api-gw-caching-remoteAPIRef-setup . Let me know if this works for you, and if we can help debug this issue more.

Hey @DianaIonita that seems to have resolved the issue. Thanks :)

Hi @mzmiric5,
I've reproduced the issue you're having, however, I can't get my code to a state where Manually overiding the restApiExists function to return true successfully deploys the functions and correctly enables caching. It fails for me with this error message: The CloudFormation template is invalid: Unresolved resource dependencies [ApiGatewayRestApi] in the Outputs block of the template.
Do you have a sample serverless.yml file (or two, if you're referencing a Rest API from another project) I could take a look at and start debugging?

Thanks

Hey @mzmiric5,
Thank you for the sample code you provided, it made it really easy to see where the issue was.
I just released a new version of the package, 1.1.6, which first checks the yaml for a pre-defined restApiId.
Please let me know if that solves your problem.
