Set up an Amazon EventBridge destination for event publishing

Set up an Amazon EventBridge destination for event publishing - Amazon Simple Email Service

An Amazon EventBridge event destination notifies you about the email sending events you specify in a configuration set. SES generates and sends email sending events that you define when creating an event destination to the EventBridge default event bus. An event bus is a router that receives events and can deliver them to multiple destinations. You can learn more about integrating email sending events with Amazon EventBridge in Monitoring SES events using Amazon EventBridge. Because an EventBridge event destination can only be set up in a configuration set, you have to create a configuration set before you add the event destination to the configuration set.

The procedure in this section shows how to add EventBridge event destination details to a configuration set and assumes you have completed steps 1 through 6 in Creating an event destination.

You can also use the UpdateConfigurationSetEventDestination operation in the Amazon SES API V2 to create and modify event destinations.
