cloudfront distribution with several origins

Question

Hi,
I have a CloudFront distribution that I want to links to 3 origins (buckets ) and be able to serve content from those buckets using 1 Alternate domain name.
Is it possible? and how do I set it up?

Of course, it is possible.

You need to define 3 origins and then assign them to proper behaviours using regex to create path patterns.

It means for example
* example.com/bucketA -> serve BucketA - pathPattern: /bucketA*
* example.com/bucketB -> serve BucketB - pathPattern: /bucketB*
* example.com -> serve BucketC - pathPattern: Default (*)

Currently I am using a cloudfront distribution to serve my frontend. I am looking to use the same domain for backend too. For that I have added a behavior in cloudfront distribution. All the /api/* requests are mapped to go to an API gateway origin. However when I make the api call to /api/* path pattern, Im getting 404 Not found. The request is reaching cloudfront but not getting redirected to the api gateway.

I have verified for typos, origin path is empty and the api gateway url is functional. Am I missing something?
