Configuring Amazon Q Developer in chat applications to send notifications about events in Amazon Health

You can receive Amazon Health events directly in your chat clients, such as Slack and Amazon Chime. You can use this event to identify recent Amazon service issues that might affect your Amazon applications and infrastructure. Then, you can sign in to your Amazon Health Dashboard to learn more about the update. For example, if you're monitoring for the AWS_EC2_INSTANCE_STOP_SCHEDULED event type in your Amazon account, the Amazon Health event can appear directly to your Slack channel.

Prerequisites

Before you get started, you must have the following:

  • A chat client configured with Amazon Q Developer in chat applications. You can configure Amazon Chime and Slack. For more information, see Getting started with Amazon Q Developer in chat applications in the Amazon Q Developer in chat applications Administrator Guide.

  • An Amazon SNS topic that you created and to which you're subscribed. If you already have an SNS topic, you can use an existing one. For more information, see Getting started with Amazon SNS in the Amazon Simple Notification Service Developer Guide.
