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)
[https://forum.ictsharks.com/hooks/aws\_sns](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`

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