I have created a very basic simple function on AWS Lambda which will be used to accept form submissions.
Part of the function will be to send an email to a particular person, pretty simple. I am trying to use AWS SES in order to do this. I have set up the SES service etc and verified the account I wish to send to and have been able to send out a test email. All works!!
Now when I try and do the same within AWS Lambda and use the aws sdk it doesn't send out the email. I don't get an error or anything.
Below is the code that I am using for the AWS Lambda function.
Has anyone had any experience using lambda and sending emails via SES, through a lambda function? Or even just using the node.js aws sdk would more than likely be helpful.
var aws = require('aws-sdk');
var ses = new aws.SES({
accessKeyId: 'myAccessKey',
secretAccesskey: 'mySecretKey',
region: 'eu-west-1'
});
exports.handler = function(event, context) {
console.log("Incoming: ", event);
var output = querystring.parse(event);
var eParams = {
Destination: {
ToAddresses: ["[email protected]"]
},
Message: {
Body: {
Text: {
Data: output.Key1
}
},
Subject: {
Data: "Ses Test Email"
}
},
Source: "[email protected]"
};
console.log('===SENDING EMAIL===');
var email = ses.sendEmail(eParams, function(err, data){
if(err) console.log(err);
else {
console.log("===EMAIL SENT===");
console.log(data);
}
});
console.log("EMAIL CODE END");
console.log('EMAIL: ', email);
context.succeed(event);
};
