Question

boto3.client('ses').send_email(
        Source = email_from,
        Destination={
            'ToAddresses': [
                email_to,

    )

I am using boto3 SES, after execution of the above code through lambda function I am getting the following error:

Could not connect to the endpoint URL: \"https://email.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/\

For Lambda function my region is ap-southeast-1

Any Help will be appriciated

Answer 1

At the time of writing this, AWS offers its SES service only for 6 regions:

• US East (N. Virginia) us-east-1
• US West (Oregon) us-west-2
• EU (Ireland) eu-west-1
• AP (Mumbai) ap-south-1
• AP (Sydney) ap-southeast-2
• EU (Frankfurt) eu-central-1

Use one of the above as your AWS_REGION

client = boto3.client('ses',region_name=AWS_REGION)

Note: Look for the latest list of regions on AWS website.
