Sending email via AWS SES within AWS Lambda function
It would appear that I had the context.succeed(event) placed in the wrong area of code.
Once I moved it into the sendEmail callback all worked.
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);
context.fail(err);
} else {
console.log("===EMAIL SENT===");
console.log("EMAIL CODE END");
console.log('EMAIL: ', email);
console.log(data);
context.succeed(event);
}
});};
