Description

For bug reports:

• What went wrong? I set the AWS_REGION environment variable to eu-west-1 as described in the documentation, but my API was deployed to us-east-1
• What did you expect should have happened? The API should have been deployed to the eu-west-1 AWS region
• What was the config you used? A config without a default region set
• What stacktrace or error message from your provider did you see?

• What is the use case that should be solved. The more detail you describe this in the easier it is to understand for us.
