# Amazon EventBridge API Reference > Amazon EventBridge helps you to respond to state changes in your AWS resources. When your resources change state, they automatically send events to an event stream. You can create rules that match selected events in the stream and route them to targets to take action. You can also use rules to take action on a predetermined schedule. For example, you can configure rules to: - [Welcome](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/APIReference/Welcome.md) - [Common Parameters](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/APIReference/CommonParameters.md) -
