How to Monitor API Gateway Request Count(SUM) in CloudWatch Without Enabling Logs

Hi everyone,

I need help understanding how to monitor which API Gateway (both REST API and HTTP API) has generated the highest request count using CloudWatch. My goal is to identify which API is contributing the most to my request-related costs for this month.

I’ve checked CloudWatch Metrics under AWS/ApiGateway and found the Count metric, but I’m unsure how to break it down by API name or endpoint without enabling CloudWatch Logs.

What I’m looking for:
A way to track request counts per API without enabling API Gateway logging.

Insights into which specific API (or endpoint) is responsible for the highest request fees this month.

Whether I can use CloudWatch Metrics, Insights queries, or other AWS tools to achieve this.

If anyone has experience with this or knows a better way to track API-related costs efficiently, I’d really appreciate your insights!

Thanks in advance!
