Overview

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a cost-effective, outbound-only email-sending service.

Enable this integration to see in Datadog all your SES metrics.

Setup

Installation

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

Metric collection

In the AWS integration page, ensure that SES is enabled under the Metric Collection tab.
Add those permissions to your Datadog IAM policy in order to collect Amazon SES metrics:
- ses:GetSendQuota: Add metrics about send quotas.
- ses:GetSendStatistics: Add metrics about send statistics.
For more information, see the SES policies on the AWS website.
Install the Datadog - Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) integration.

Log collection

Enable logging

Configure Amazon SES to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_ses is set as Target prefix.

Send logs to Datadog

If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.
Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your Amazon SES logs in the AWS console:
- Add a manual trigger on the S3 bucket
- Add a manual trigger on the CloudWatch Log Group
