Amazon SES BYOK for email. You keep the AWS account; Notifique sends via the SES API with your credentials.

Goal

With an active SES integration, sends try your SES account first. Failure → next BYOK (e.g. Resend) or Notifique internal fallback. Each send consumes 1 email credit on Notifique (or prepaid price), plus SES cost on your AWS account.
SES sandbox accounts can only send to verified addresses. Request production access on AWS before real traffic.

Credentials

In the dashboard (Settings → Integrations): Auth type CUSTOM (providerKey: aws_ses).

Suggested minimum IAM

Prefer scoping Resource to account/region when possible.

Domains

On save:
  1. ≥1 VERIFIED domain on Notifique
  2. ≥1 verified / send-ready domain identity on your SES account
  3. Hostname overlap (same rule as Resend)
At send time, from must use a Notifique-approved domain.

Automatic provisioning

On connect, Notifique (using your credentials):
  1. Creates a configuration set notifique-…
  2. Creates an SNS topic and HTTPS subscription to
    {WEBHOOK_URL}/webhooks/email/ses/:integrationId
  3. Enables events SEND, DELIVERY, OPEN, CLICK, BOUNCE, COMPLAINT, REJECT
Existing integrations are auto-synced on the next workspace integrations list (updates the AWS configuration set).

Opens and clicks

  • Native SES: with tracking enabled on the configuration set (PutConfigurationSetTrackingOptions), OPEN/CLICK events arrive via SNS and update status + email.opened / email.clicked webhooks.
  • clicar.co: with workspace auto-convert enabled, links in HTML/text become short links before send (API, dashboard, automation, notify), clicks also fire email.clicked via Notifique tracking.
On remove, tries to delete the configuration set and SNS topic.

Sending

  • API: SES v2 SendEmail
  • Integration ConfigurationSetName (for events)
  • Tag notifique_email_id when available
  • Dashboard history like other channels (providerType: EXTERNAL, providerUsed: AWS_SES)

Failover

SES BYOK failure → next external provider → internal chain (ZeptoMail / platform SES).

Workspace setup

  1. Channel: EMAIL
  2. Provider: Amazon SES
  3. Access Key, Secret and region
After save, the Secret does not reappear in plaintext.
