Configuring Amazon SNS notifications for Amazon SES

1. Create a topic in Amazon SNS. For more information, see Create a Topic in the Amazon Simple Notification Service Developer Guide.

   Important

   When you create your topic using Amazon SNS, for Type, only choose Standard. (SES does not support FIFO type topics.)

   Whether you create a new SNS topic or select an existing one, you need to give access to SES to publish notifications to the topic.

   To give Amazon SES permission to publish notifications to the topic, on the Edit topic screen in the SNS console, expand Access policy and in the JSON editor, add the following permission policy:

   {
     "Version": "2012-10-17",
     "Id": "notification-policy",
     "Statement": [
       {
         "Effect": "Allow",
         "Principal": {
           "Service": "ses.amazonaws.com"
         },
         "Action": "sns:Publish",
         "Resource": "arn:aws:sns:topic_region:111122223333:topic_name",
         "Condition": {
           "StringEquals": {
             "AWS:SourceAccount": "111122223333",
             "AWS:SourceArn": "arn:aws:ses:topic_region:111122223333:identity/identity_name"
           }
         }
       }
     ]
   }

   Make the following changes to the preceding policy example:

   • Replace topic_region with the AWS Region where you created the SNS topic.

   • Replace 111122223333 with your AWS account ID.

   • Replace topic_name with the name of your SNS topic.

   • Replace identity_name with the verified identity (email address or domain) that you're subscribing to the SNS topic.

2. Subscribe at least one endpoint to the topic. For example, if you want to receive notifications by text message, subscribe an SMS endpoint (that is, a mobile phone number) to the topic. To receive notifications by email, subscribe an email endpoint (an email address) to the topic.

   For more information, see Getting Started in the Amazon Simple Notification Service Developer Guide.

3. (Optional) If your Amazon SNS topic uses AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) for server-side encryption, you have to add permissions to the AWS KMS key policy. You can add permissions by attaching the following policy to the AWS KMS key policy:

   {
       "Version": "2012-10-17",
       "Statement": [
           {
               "Sid": "AllowSESToUseKMSKey",
               "Effect": "Allow",
               "Principal": {
                   "Service": "ses.amazonaws.com"
               },
               "Action": [
                   "kms:GenerateDataKey",
                   "kms:Decrypt"
               ],
               "Resource": "*"
           }
       ]
   }

To configure notifications using the Amazon SES console

1. Open the Amazon SES console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ses/.

2. In the navigation pane, under Configuration, choose Verified identities.

3. In the Identities container, select the verified identity you want to receive feedback notifications for when a message sent from this identity results in either a bounce, complaint, or delivery.

   Important

   Verified domain notification settings apply to all mail sent from email addresses in that domain except for email addresses that are also verified.

4. In the details screen of the verified identity you selected, choose the Notifications tab and select Edit in the Feedback notifications container.

5. Expand the SNS topic list box of each feedback type you want to receive notifications for, and select either an SNS topic you own, No SNS topic, or SNS topic you don’t own.

   1. If you chose SNS topic you don’t own, the SNS topic ARN field will be presented where you must enter the SNS topic ARN shared with you by your delegate sender. (Only your delegate sender will get these notifications because they own the SNS topic. To learn more about delegate sending, see Overview of sending authorization.)

   Important

   The Amazon SNS topics that you use for bounce, complaint, and delivery notifications have to be in the same AWS Region that in which you use Amazon SES.

   Additionally, you have to subscribe one or more endpoints to the topic in order to receive notifications. For example, if you want to have notifications sent to an email address, you have to subscribe an email endpoint to the topic. For more information, see Getting Started in the Amazon Simple Notification Service Developer Guide.

6. (Optional) If you want your topic notification to include the headers from the original email, check the Include original email headers box directly underneath the SNS topic name of each feedback type. This option is only available if you've assigned an Amazon SNS topic to the associated notification type. For information about the contents of the original email headers, see the mail object in Notification contents.

7. Choose Save changes. The changes you made to your notification settings might take a few minutes to take effect.

8. (Optional) If you chose Amazon SNS topic notifications for both bounces and complaints, you can disable email notifications entirely so that you don't receive double notifications through email and SNS notifications. To disable email notifications for bounces and complaints, under the Notifications tab on the details screen of the verified identity, in the Email Feedback Forwarding container, choose Edit, uncheck the Enabled box, and choose Save changes. .
