AWS SNS

Send your event data to Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) topics in real-time

The AWS SNS destination enables you to publish your event data to Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) topics in real-time. This allows you to fan out events to multiple subscribers, including SQS queues, Lambda functions, and HTTP endpoints.

Configuration

To set up the AWS SNS destination:

  1. Navigate to the Destinations section in your account
  2. Click "Add Destination" and select "AWS SNS"
  3. Provide the following information:
    • AWS Region
    • SNS Topic ARN

Event Format

Events published to your SNS topic will be in the following format:

{
  "event": "Order Completed",
  "event_properties": {
    "order_id": "12345",
    "total": 99.99
  },
  ... etc
}

Best Practices

  • Ensure your SNS topic has appropriate access policies (you will need to contact a member of the Ours Privacy team for this)
  • Consider using message attributes for filtering
