+## [1.135.0](https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/compare/v1.134.0...v1.135.0) (2021-12-10)
+
+
+### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES TO EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES
+
+* **apigatewayv2-authorizers:** The default value for the prop `authorizerName`
+in `HttpJwtAuthorizerProps` has changed.
+* **apigatewayv2-authorizers:** `HttpJwtAuthorizer` now takes the
+  construct id and the target jwt issuer as part of its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-authorizers:** `HttpLambdaAuthorizer` now takes
+  the construct id and the target lambda function handler as part of
+  its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-authorizers:** The default value for the prop
+  `authorizerName` in `HttpUserPoolAuthorizerProps` has changed.
+* **apigatewayv2:** The `HttpIntegration` and `WebSocketIntegration`
+classes require an "id" parameter to be provided during its initialization.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** The `LambdaWebSocketIntegration` is now
+  renamed to `WebSocketLambdaIntegration`. The new class accepts the
+  handler to the target lambda function directly in its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** `HttpProxyIntegration` and
+  `HttpProxyIntegrationProps` are now renamed to `HttpUrlIntegration`
+  and `HttpUrlIntegrationProps` respectively. The new class accepts the
+  target url directly in its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** `LambdaProxyIntegration` and
+  `LambdaProxyIntegrationProps` are now renamed to
+  `HttpLambdaIntegration` and `HttpLambdaIntegrationProps` respectively.
+  The new class accepts the lambda function handler directly in its
+  constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** `HttpAlbIntegration` now accepts the
+  ELB listener directly in its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** `HttpNlbIntegration` now accepts the
+  ELB listener directly in its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-integrations:** `HttpServiceDiscoveryIntegration` now
+  accepts the service discovery Service directly in its constructor.
+* **apigatewayv2-authorizers:** `UserPoolAuthorizerProps` is now
+  renamed to `HttpUserPoolAuthorizerProps`.
+* **apigatewayv2:** The interface `IHttpRouteIntegration` is replaced by
+the abstract class `HttpRouteIntegration`.
+* **apigatewayv2:** The interface `IWebSocketRouteIntegration` is now
+  replaced by the abstract class `WebSocketRouteIntegration`.
+* **apigatewayv2:** Previously, we allowed the usage of integration
+  classes to be used with routes defined in multiple `HttpApi` instances
+  (or `WebSocketApi` instances). This is now disallowed, and separate
+  instances must be created for each instance of `HttpApi` or
+  `WebSocketApi`.
