Receiving Job Status Notifications

You can have Amazon EventBridge or Amazon CloudWatch Events notify you with status updates for ongoing Amazon Forecast resource jobs, such as creating predictors or forecasts. EventBridge and CloudWatch Events deliver a near real-time stream of system events that describe changes in Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources. For example, you can set up an event to notify you when a Forecast predictor finishes training.

Events are emitted on a best-effort basis. For more information about events, see the Amazon EventBridge User Guide or the Amazon CloudWatch Events User Guide.

Note

We recommend using Amazon EventBridge to manage events. CloudWatch Events and EventBridge use the same API and provide the same functionality, but EventBridge provides more features. Changes that you make in either CloudWatch or EventBridge will appear in each console. For more information, see Amazon EventBridge.

Monitoring Forecast Resource Jobs

An event indicates a change in your AWS environment, and a rule matches incoming events and routes them to targets for processing. You can set up rules to match Forecast events and route them to one or more target functions or streams. EventBridge and CloudWatch Events detect events as they occur and invoke the target in the matching rule.

The following table lists the Forecast resource jobs and their status change events, which you can monitor.

Notifications contain information about the resource, including the Amazon Resource Name (ARN), job status, job duration (in minutes), and, if the job failed, an error message. Delete event notifications don't include a Duration field. The following is an example notification:

{ "version": "0", "id": "017fcb6d-7ca3-ebf8-819e-3e0fa956ee17", "detail-type": "Forecast Dataset Import Job State Change", "source": "aws.forecast", "account": "000000000001", "time": "2021-02-19T05:45:51Z", "region": "us-east-1", "resources": [ "arn:aws:forecast:us-west-2:000000000001:dataset/example_data" ], "detail": { "Arn": "arn:aws:forecast:us-west-2:000000000001:dataset/example_data", "Duration": 60, "Status": "ACTIVE", } }
