How use segmented URL in AWS API Gateway?

I have a Lambda Function that it is accessible by an API Gateway. I can handle all POST and GET submitted requests to API endpoint (https://XXXXXXX.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/default/myapi) inside my Lambda, but I need to use some segments at end of my URL when I am using PUT requests.

My Python code to call the API is here and it is working correctly:

import requests
import json

url = 'https://XXXXXXX.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/default/myapi'
token = "my token"

data = {
        "first_name": "Reza",
        "birthday": "1986-09-12"
        }

headers = {"Content-Type" : "application/json", "x-api-key":"MY_API_KEY"}
response = requests.put(url, data=json.dumps(data), headers=headers)
print(response.text)

But if I add users segment to end of the URL like this:

url = 'https://XXXXXXX.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/default/myapi/users'

it will show this error:

{"message":"Missing Authentication Token"}

I need to add some static segments like users to return the list of all users and some dynamic segments like users/USER_ID (when USER_ID is a dynamic number) to return the information for a special user.

can you please guide me how I can use segmented URL in my AWS API Gateway?

The term you are using segmented URL might have caused your confusion. It is called path parameters with AWS. There is more than one way to do it. ANY+ integration is the easiest to handle.

Integrate with ANY+ integration to your lambda and you are good to go. All the path parameters will be delivered to your lambda.

Additional path parameter documentation,

Good luck.
