AWS User Notifications can be used to set up delivery channels to get notified about AWS Ground Station events. You receive a notification when an event matches a rule that you specify. You can receive notifications for events through multiple channels, including email, AWS Chatbot chat notifications, or AWS Console Mobile Application push notifications. You can also see notifications in the Console Notifications Center
