Looks like it is missing from the cloudformation resource specification.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/cfn-resource-specification.html

in Api reference, property related originGroups is there.

Hi @kawamoto, thanks for submitting a feature request! You're right, it looks like OriginGroup is still not supported by CloudFormation and, unfortunately, until it is we won't be able to add it to the CDK. I suggest requesting it on the CloudFormation forum here.

I believe CloudFormation now supports OriginGroups https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/aws-cloudformation-coverage-roadmap/issues/65#issuecomment-596959898
