Tutorial: Register an event rule - AWS Batch

Tutorial: Register an event rule

Next, register an event rule that captures only job-failed events.

To register your EventBridge rule

  1. Open the Amazon EventBridge console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/events/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Rules.

  3. Choose Create rule.

  4. Enter a name and description for the rule.

    A rule can't have the same name as another rule in the same Region and on the same event bus.

  5. For Event bus, choose the event bus that you want to associate with this rule. If you want this rule to match events that come from your account, select AWS default event bus. When an AWS service in your account emits an event, it always goes to your account's default event bus.

  6. For Rule type, choose Rule with an event pattern.

  7. Choose Next.

  8. For Event source, choose Other.

  9. For Event pattern, select Custom patterns (JSON editor).

  10. Paste the following event pattern into the text area.

    {
  "detail-type": [
    "Batch Job State Change"
  ],
  "source": [
    "aws.batch"
  ],
  "detail": {
    "status": [
      "FAILED"
    ]
  }
}

    This code defines an EventBridge rule that matches any event where the job status is FAILED. For more information about event patterns, see Events and Event Patterns in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide.

  11. Choose Next.

  12. For Target types, choose AWS service.

  13. For Select a target, choose SNS topic, and for Topic, choose JobFailedAlert.

  14. (Optional) For Additional settings, do the following:

    1. For Maximum age of event, enter a value between one minute (00:01) and 24 hours (24:00).

    2. For Retry attempts, enter a number between 0 and 185.

    3. For Dead-letter queue, choose whether to use a standard Amazon SQS queue as a dead-letter queue. EventBridge sends events that match this rule to the dead-letter queue if they are not successfully delivered to the target. Do one of the following:

      • Choose None to not use a dead-letter queue.

      • Choose Select an Amazon SQS queue in the current AWS account to use as the dead-letter queue and then select the queue to use from the dropdown.

      • Choose Select an Amazon SQS queue in an other AWS account as a dead-letter queue and then enter the ARN of the queue to use. You must attach a resource-based policy to the queue that grants EventBridge permission to send messages to it. For more information, see Granting permissions to the dead-letter queue in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide.

  15. Choose Next.

  16. (Optional) Enter one or more tags for the rule. For more information, see Amazon EventBridge tags in the Amazon EventBridge User Guide.

  17. Choose Next.

  18. Review the details of the rule and choose Create rule.
