Using Amazon CloudWatch Internet Monitor with Amazon EventBridge

The health events that Amazon CloudWatch Internet Monitor creates for networking issues are published with Amazon EventBridge, so that you can send notifications about any degradation in end users' experience for your application.

1. In the AWS Management Console, in EventBridge, choose Rules, then enter a name and a description. Create the rule on the Default event bus.

2. In Step 2, select Other for the event source, and then, under Event pattern, match the following source.

   {
     "source": ["aws.internetmonitor"]
   }

3. In Step 3, for the target, select AWS Service and CloudWatch Logs Group, then select an existing log group or create a new one.
