To get started using User Notifications to help manage your notifications, use the following steps to create a notification configuration.
Step 1: Creating a notification configurationTo receive AWS notifications, you must first create notification configurations. A notification configuration is a container for the services and event rules that you want to be notified about. An event rule specifies what events generate a notification and which delivery channels to use.
You can also create notification configurations and receive notifications using the AWS User Notifications API. For more information, see the AWS User Notifications API Reference.
To create a notification configurationOpen User Notifications in the AWS Management Console:
Choose the bell icon in the top navigation bar.
Choose Notification center.
In the navigation pane, choose Notification configurations.
Choose Create notification configuration.
Select at least one notification hub.
Enter a name for your configuration.
(Optional) Enter a description for your configuration.
For AWS service name, select the name of an AWS service to use as the event source.
For Event type, select event types.
For Regions, select the AWS Regions where your service data is located.
Aggregation settings reduce the number of notifications that you receive by combining multiple events into fewer notifications based on the option you choose. Aggregation settings are turned on by default. We recommend you use aggregation settings.
Choose if you would like to Receive within 5 minutes (recommended), Receive within 12 hours, or Do not aggregate.
TipChoose Receive fewer notifications for low priority notifications. Choose Reduce notifications delivery time for high priority notifications.
Select your delivery channels. We recommend that you view an event before adding additional recipients.
A verification email is sent to newly added email addresses once you create the notification configuration. You can generate another verification email for pending addresses by choosing Reverify.
Choose Add emails.
TipYou can use your email distribution lists as an email delivery channel to easily subscribe multiple email addresses to User Notifications with a single verification flow. You can separately add and remove emails to the distribution list without requiring further verification with User Notifications.
For Recipient, enter or choose the recipient's email address.
For Name, enter the recipient's name.
(Optional) Choose Add another recipient to add more recipients.
Choose Add emails.
For Channel, add a new channel or select the existing channels you want to send notifications to.
Before you add a mobile device as a delivery channel, you must:
Add the appropriate IAM permissions to make mobile device available in theUser Notifications console. For more information, see IAM permissions for listing mobile devices as delivery channels in the AWS Console Mobile Application User Guide.
Install the AWS Console Mobile Application on to your device with push notifications enabled. Note that the notifications you receive are push notifications, not Short Message Service (SMS). For more information, see Step 1: Get started with push notifications in the AWS Console Mobile Application User Guide.
For Device, select the devices you want to send notifications to.
A tag is a label that you assign to an AWS resource. Tags help you organize your resources. For more information, see Tagging your resources.
For Key, enter the key name you want to use.
(Optional) For Value, enter a value for the specified key.
(Optional) Choose Add new tag to add more tags.
Review your configuration and confirm its details.
Choose Create notification configuration.
If you want to receive notifications from multiple accounts, follow the instructions in Sending and receiving Amazon EventBridge events between AWS accounts. Once you set up a receiver account, create a notification configuration that reacts to events by following the previous instructions.
Step 2: Viewing notificationsOnce you create your notification configurations in your account, any events matching an event rule generate a notification in the AWS Management Console. You can view notifications from the console Navigation bar and in the Console Notification Center. You can also view notifications from your chosen delivery channels.
To view notifications from the Navigation bar NoteThe bell icon in the console Navigation bar shows a red badge when new notifications are available.
Choose the bell icon to view notifications related to your account.

To view additional details about a notification, select the notification.

Open the Console Mobile Application.
Choose Notifications from the tab menu at the bottom of your device.
To view additional details about a notification, select the notification in your inbox.
