Copy Amazon SES email and domain identities from one AWS Region to another using an AWS SDK
The following code example shows how to copy Amazon SES email and domain identities from one AWS Region to another. When domain identities are managed by RouteĀ 53, verification records are copied to the domain for the destination Region.
