How do I define a CloudFront Origin Group in CloudFormation?


I want to define a CloudFront Origin Group inside my CloudFormation yaml file.

How do I do this? Or is it not yet supported by CloudFormation?

I always have trouble finding a definitive answer if service X feature Y is supported by CloudFormation. My current go to is looking at the Resource Types reference, and drilling down until I find what I'm looking for. If anyone knows of a better way, please let me know.

    CloudFormation does not support origin groups yet. We have heard this from other customers as well and it is added to our feature backlog. However, we don't have a timeline to offer at this time.
