Set up an Amazon Pinpoint event destination for event publishing

A event destination notifies you about specific email sending events using Amazon Pinpoint. Because an Amazon Pinpoint event destination only exists within 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 Amazon Pinpoint 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.

There are additional charges for the types of channels you have configured in your Amazon Pinpoint projects. For more information, see Amazon Pinpoint Pricing.
