Creating an AWS CodeCommit Repository That Triggers Email Notifications.

Introduction

This lab will consist of creating a new AWS CodeCommit repository and adding our source control. We will use a trigger in CodeCommit to listen for any new commit to our source code to trigger an email notification via Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS).

Create an Amazon SNS topic

● Navigate to Amazon SNS.

● On the homepage, enter the topic name CodeCommitDev in the Create Topic section.

● Click Next step.

● On the Create topic page, select the Standard option and leave everything else as the default.

● Click Create topic.

● Open the AWS Subscription Confirmation email and click Confirm subscription.

● Return to the Amazon SNS page and check that the confirmation went through.

● Check your email to see if you received a notification of a change to the repository.

Key Workflow Steps

1. Developer Commits Code:
   A developer pushes code changes to the AWS CodeCommit repository.


2. Event Detection:
   An event is triggered within AWS CodeCommit to detect the new commit.


3. Notification Dispatch:
   The event triggers an Amazon SNS topic, which sends notifications to the QA team.


4. Notification Received:
   QA team members receive the notification via email and proceed with the review
