An AppSync Function in AWS is a reusable unit of business logic within an AppSync pipeline resolver. It allows you to define operations such as data fetching, transformation, or validation that can be composed together in sequence. Functions can interact with data sources like DynamoDB, Lambda, or HTTP endpoints, and are executed in the order defined by the pipeline. This helps modularize resolver logic, making it easier to maintain, reuse, and scale GraphQL APIs.
