Event Target for Amazon SNS
This event Target receives CloudEvents over HTTP and invokes an Amazon SNS endpoint.
Prerequisite(s)
- AWS API key and secret
- ARN for the SNS topic to invoke
Consult the Secrets guide for more information about how to add the AWS API specific secrets.
Deploying an Instance of the Target
Open the Bridge creation screen and add a Target of type Amazon SNS
.
In the Target creation form, provide a name for the event Target and add the following information:
- AWS Secret: Reference a TriggerMesh secret containing an AWS API key and Secret as discussed in the prerequisites.
- AWS ARN: The ARN that points to the Amazon SNS topic.
There is an optional toggle flag indicating if the full CloudEvent should be sent to SNS. By default, this is disabled which means only the event payload will be sent.
After clicking the Save
button, the console will self-navigate to the Bridge editor. Proceed by adding the remaining components to the Bridge.
After submitting the Bridge, and allowing for some configuration time, a green check mark on the main Bridges page indicates that the Bridge with the Amazon SNS Target was successfully created.

Event Types
The Amazon SNS event Target leaves the CloudEvent type definition to the discretion of the implementer given the flexible nature of Amazon SNS.
However, the response CloudEvent would have the following payload:
Name | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
ce-type | io.triggermesh.targets.aws.sns.result | Denotes a response payload from SNS |
ce-source | arn:aws:sns:... |
The SNS ARN value as configured by the target |
body | JSON | A JSON response from the Target invocation |
