Hi everyone! I need help setting up the AWS SNS topic ARN allowlist. I created a topic and a subscription in AWS SNS. In SES, I added the SNS topic to my domain and email addresses for feedback notifications. Unfortunately, it’s not working. The subscription status is still showing “pending confirmation.” I think the problem might be an incorrectly entered endpoint. Following Gemini’s advice, I tried these two: https://forum.ictsharks.com https://forum.ictsharks.com/hooks/aws_sns Could you please advise me on the correct endpoint? Thank you

This might work: https://forum.example.com/aws/sns

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work.

I solved the problem! The correct format is: https://forum.example.com/webhooks/aws

I did this and it still shows Pending confirmation. @Deenius is this working for you still? What other setup did you do if any on the discourse side. Did you have to create a web hook?

Yes, it works for me. The only problem was that the URL format was entered incorrectly.

How do I properly configure the AWS SNS topic ARN allowlist?
