Using EventBridge to Monitory Lambda Failures

Question

I currently monitor my AWS Glue Jobs and Crawlers using EventBridge.

I've setup the following event monitors:

{
  "source": [
    "aws.glue"
  ],
  "detail-type": [
    "Glue Job State Change"
  ],
  "detail": {
    "jobName": [
      "job-name-here"
    ],
    "state": [
      "SUCCEEDED",
      "FAILED"
    ]
  }
}

and

{
  "source": [
    "aws.glue"
  ],
  "detail-type": [
    "Glue Crawler State Change"
  ],
  "detail": {
    "crawlerName": [
      "crawler-name-here"
    ],
    "state": [
      "Succeeded",
      "Failed"
    ]
  }
}

Is there a similar way to do this with Lambda? I've had no success thus far.

By default no events from Lambda service other than Cloudtrail events are published to EventBridge, note that Lambda service is not in this page: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/userguide/eb-service-event.html

To publish events from success or failures of Lambdas you should instead configure your Lambda destination to publish it's success or failure event to the Eventbridge: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/introducing-aws-lambda-destinations/
