Create a new predictive inbox placement test. Predictive inbox placement tests can help you predict how your messages will be handled by various email providers around the world. When you perform a predictive inbox placement test, you provide a sample message that contains the content that you plan to send to your customers. Amazon SES then sends that message to special email addresses spread across several major email providers. After about 24 hours, the test is complete, and you can use the GetDeliverabilityTestReport operation to view the results of the test.

      • Data (string) -- [REQUIRED]

        The content of the message itself.

      • Charset (string) --

        The character set for the content. Because of the constraints of the SMTP protocol, Amazon SES uses 7-bit ASCII by default. If the text includes characters outside of the ASCII range, you have to specify a character set. For example, you could specify UTF-8 , ISO-8859-1 , or Shift_JIS .

    • Body (dict) -- [REQUIRED]

      The body of the message. You can specify an HTML version of the message, a text-only version of the message, or both.

        • Data (string) -- [REQUIRED]

          The content of the message itself.

        • Charset (string) --

          The character set for the content. Because of the constraints of the SMTP protocol, Amazon SES uses 7-bit ASCII by default. If the text includes characters outside of the ASCII range, you have to specify a character set. For example, you could specify UTF-8 , ISO-8859-1 , or Shift_JIS .

        • Charset (string) --

          The character set for the content. Because of the constraints of the SMTP protocol, Amazon SES uses 7-bit ASCII by default. If the text includes characters outside of the ASCII range, you have to specify a character set. For example, you could specify UTF-8 , ISO-8859-1 , or Shift_JIS .

      The list of message headers that will be added to the email message.

      • (dict) --

        Contains the name and value of a message header that you add to an email.

    • The raw data of the message needs to base64-encoded if you are accessing Amazon SES directly through the HTTPS interface. If you are accessing Amazon SES using an Amazon Web Services SDK, the SDK takes care of the base 64-encoding for you.

    • If any of the MIME parts in your message contain content that is outside of the 7-bit ASCII character range, you should encode that content to ensure that recipients' email clients render the message properly.

    • The length of any single line of text in the message can't exceed 1,000 characters. This restriction is defined in RFC 5321.

list

param Tags

An array of objects that define the tags (keys and values) that you want to associate with the predictive inbox placement test.

  • (dict) --

Tags can help you categorize and manage resources in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria. A resource can have as many as 50 tags.

    Each tag consists of a required tag key and an associated tag value , both of which you define. A tag key is a general label that acts as a category for a more specific tag value. A tag value acts as a descriptor within a tag key. A tag key can contain as many as 128 characters. A tag value can contain as many as 256 characters. The characters can be Unicode letters, digits, white space, or one of the following symbols: _ . : / = + -. The following additional restrictions apply to tags:

    • Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

    • For each associated resource, each tag key must be unique and it can have only one value.

    • The aws: prefix is reserved for use by Amazon Web Services; you can’t use it in any tag keys or values that you define. In addition, you can't edit or remove tag keys or values that use this prefix. Tags that use this prefix don’t count against the limit of 50 tags per resource.

    • You can associate tags with public or shared resources, but the tags are available only for your Amazon Web Services account, not any other accounts that share the resource. In addition, the tags are available only for resources that are located in the specified Amazon Web Services Region for your Amazon Web Services account.

    • Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      One part of a key-value pair that defines a tag. The maximum length of a tag key is 128 characters. The minimum length is 1 character.

    • Value (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The optional part of a key-value pair that defines a tag. The maximum length of a tag value is 256 characters. The minimum length is 0 characters. If you don't want a resource to have a specific tag value, don't specify a value for this parameter. If you don't specify a value, Amazon SES sets the value to an empty string.

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.

type FromEmailAddress

string

param FromEmailAddress

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

type FromEmailAddressIdentityArn

string

param FromEmailAddressIdentityArn

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 FromEmailAddress parameter.

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 FromEmailAddressIdentityArn to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com, and the FromEmailAddress to be sender@example.com.

For more information about sending authorization, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.

For Raw emails, the FromEmailAddressIdentityArn value overrides the X-SES-SOURCE-ARN and X-SES-FROM-ARN headers specified in raw email message content.

type Destination

dict

param Destination

An object that contains the recipients of the email message.

  • ToAddresses (list) --

    An array that contains the email addresses of the "To" recipients for the email.

    • (string) --

  • CcAddresses (list) --

    An array that contains the email addresses of the "CC" (carbon copy) recipients for the email.

    • (string) --

  • BccAddresses (list) --

    An array that contains the email addresses of the "BCC" (blind carbon copy) recipients for the email.

    • (string) --

type ReplyToAddresses

list

param ReplyToAddresses

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

  • (string) --

type FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress

string

param FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress

The address that you want bounce and complaint notifications to be sent to.

type FeedbackForwardingEmailAddressIdentityArn

string

param FeedbackForwardingEmailAddressIdentityArn

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 FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress parameter.

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 FeedbackForwardingEmailAddressIdentityArn to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com, and the FeedbackForwardingEmailAddress to be feedback@example.com.

For more information about sending authorization, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.

        The content of the message itself.

      • Charset (string) --

        The character set for the content. Because of the constraints of the SMTP protocol, Amazon SES uses 7-bit ASCII by default. If the text includes characters outside of the ASCII range, you have to specify a character set. For example, you could specify UTF-8 , ISO-8859-1 , or Shift_JIS .

    • If any of the MIME parts in your message contain content that is outside of the 7-bit ASCII character range, you should encode that content to ensure that recipients' email clients render the message properly.
