Will the Request Body Be Signed for Security Authentication?

Yes. The request body is another element that needs to be signed in addition to the mandatory request header parameters. For example, when an API used to upload a file using the POST method is called, the hash value of the file to upload is calculated to generate a signature.

For details about signatures, see section "App Authentication" in the API Gateway Developer Guide.
