This is supported by AWS for both http2_route and http_route. And very much needed in both. @ewbankkit would you rather have a separate ticket for http_route, or can we count both cases to be implemented within this one?

Also, since AWS API uses dedicated Path section for this, I'd like to suggest slightly different syntax to what @gurudatta-carbon originally proposed. See below:

  http_route {
    match {
      # The old way
      # prefix = "/users"

      # The new way
      path {
        # exact = "/users"
        regex = "/users/(\d+)/change-password"
      } 
    }
  }

  http2_route {
    match {
      # The old way
      # prefix = "/users"

      # The new way
      path {
        # exact = "/users"
        regex = "/users/(\d+)/change-password"
      } 
    }
  }
