View identities using the SES console

Focus mode
View identities using the SES console - Amazon Simple Email Service

You can use the Amazon SES console to view domain and email address identities that are verified or are pending verification. You can also view those identifies for which verification was unsuccessful.

To view your domain and email address identities
  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon SES console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ses/.

  2. In the console, use the Region selector to choose the AWS Region for which you want to view your list of identities.

    Note

    This procedure only displays a list of identities for the selected AWS Region.

  3. In the navigation pane, under Configuration, choose Verified identities. The Loaded identities table displays both domain and email address identities. The Status column displays whether an identity has been verified, is pending verification, or has failed the verification process - definitions of all possible status values are as follows:

    • Verified – your identity is successfully verified for sending in SES.

    • Failure – SES was unable to verify your identity. If it's a domain, it means SES was unable to detect the DNS records within 72 hours. If it's an email address, it means the verification email that was sent to the email address was not acknowledged within 24 hours.

    • Pending – SES is still trying to verify the identity.

    • Temporary Failure – for a previously verified domain, SES will periodically check for the DNS record required for verification. If at some point, SES is unable to detect the record, the status would change to Temporary Failure. SES will recheck for the DNS record for 72 hours, and if it’s unable to detect the record, the domain status would change to Failure. If it’s able to detect the record, the domain status would change to Verified.

    • Not started – you have not yet started the verification process.

  4. To sort identities by verification status, choose the Status column.

  5. To view an identity’s details page, select the identity that you want to view.
