To make a GET request, first create a RestOptions object and then use the Amplify.API.get api to issue the request:

```kotlin
suspend fun getItems() {
    val options = RestOptions.builder()
        .addPath("/items")
        .build()
    try {
        val response = Amplify.API.get(options)
        Log.i("MyAmplifyApp", "GET succeeded: $response")
    } catch (failure: ApiException) {
        Log.e("MyAmplifyApp", "GET failed", failure)
    }
}
```
