Sends an email message. You can use the Amazon SES API v2 to send the following types of messages:

  • Simple – A standard email message. When you create this type of message, you specify the sender, the recipient, and the message body, and Amazon SES assembles the message for you.

  • Raw – A raw, MIME-formatted email message. When you send this type of email, you have to specify all of the message headers, as well as the message body. You can use this message type to send messages that contain attachments. The message that you specify has to be a valid MIME message.

  • Templated – A message that contains personalization tags. When you send this type of email, Amazon SES API v2 automatically replaces the tags with values that you specify.

Request body

FromEmailAddressstring

The email address to use as the "From" address for the email. The address that you specify has to be verified.

FromEmailAddressIdentityArnstring
<p>This parameter is used only for sending authorization. It is the ARN of the identity that is associated with the sending authorization policy that permits you to use the email address specified in the <code>FromEmailAddress</code> parameter.</p> <p>For example, if the owner of example.com (which has ARN arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com) attaches a policy to it that authorizes you to use sender@example.com, then you would specify the <code>FromEmailAddressIdentityArn</code> to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com, and the <code>FromEmailAddress</code> to be sender@example.com.</p> <p>For more information about sending authorization, see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/sending-authorization.html">Amazon SES Developer Guide</a>.</p> <p>For Raw emails, the <code>FromEmailAddressIdentityArn</code> value overrides the X-SES-SOURCE-ARN and X-SES-FROM-ARN headers specified in raw email message content.</p>

The "Reply-to" email addresses for the message. When the recipient replies to the message, each Reply-to address receives the reply.

FeedbackForwardingEmailAddressIdentityArnstring
<p>This parameter is used only for sending authorization. It is the ARN of the identity that is associated with the sending authorization policy that permits you to use the email address specified in the <code>FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress</code> parameter.</p> <p>For example, if the owner of example.com (which has ARN arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com) attaches a policy to it that authorizes you to use feedback@example.com, then you would specify the <code>FeedbackForwardingEmailAddressIdentityArn</code> to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com, and the <code>FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress</code> to be feedback@example.com.</p> <p>For more information about sending authorization, see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/sending-authorization.html">Amazon SES Developer Guide</a>.</p>
