AWS SDK for JavaScript PinpointEmail Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.
Amazon Pinpoint Email Service
Welcome to the Amazon Pinpoint Email API Reference. This guide provides information about the Amazon Pinpoint Email API (version 1.0), including supported operations, data types, parameters, and schemas.
Amazon Pinpoint is an AWS service that you can use to engage with your customers across multiple messaging channels. You can use Amazon Pinpoint to send email, SMS text messages, voice messages, and push notifications. The Amazon Pinpoint Email API provides programmatic access to options that are unique to the email channel and supplement the options provided by the Amazon Pinpoint API.
If you're new to Amazon Pinpoint, you might find it helpful to also review the Amazon Pinpoint Developer Guide. The Amazon Pinpoint Developer Guide provides tutorials, code samples, and procedures that demonstrate how to use Amazon Pinpoint features programmatically and how to integrate Amazon Pinpoint functionality into mobile apps and other types of applications. The guide also provides information about key topics such as Amazon Pinpoint integration with other AWS services and the limits that apply to using the service.
The Amazon Pinpoint Email API is available in several AWS Regions and it provides an endpoint for each of these Regions. For a list of all the Regions and endpoints where the API is currently available, see AWS Service Endpoints in the Amazon Web Services General Reference. To learn more about AWS Regions, see Managing AWS Regions in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.
In each Region, AWS maintains multiple Availability Zones. These Availability Zones are physically isolated from each other, but are united by private, low-latency, high-throughput, and highly redundant network connections. These Availability Zones enable us to provide very high levels of availability and redundancy, while also minimizing latency. To learn more about the number of Availability Zones that are available in each Region, see AWS Global Infrastructure.
To install the this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-email using your favorite package manager:
npm install @aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-emailyarn add @aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-emailpnpm add @aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-email
The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the PinpointEmailClient and
the commands you need, for example ListConfigurationSetsCommand:
// ES5 example
const { PinpointEmailClient, ListConfigurationSetsCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-email");// ES6+ example
import { PinpointEmailClient, ListConfigurationSetsCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-email";To send a request, you:
- Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region).
- Initiate command with input parameters.
- Call
sendoperation on client with command object as input. - If you are using a custom http handler, you may call
destroy()to close open connections.
// a client can be shared by different commands.
const client = new PinpointEmailClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = {
/** input parameters */
};
const command = new ListConfigurationSetsCommand(params);We recommend using await operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
} finally {
// finally.
}Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks.
You can also use Promise chaining to execute send operation.
client.send(command).then(
(data) => {
// process data.
},
(error) => {
// error handling.
}
);Promises can also be called using .catch() and .finally() as follows:
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
})
.finally(() => {
// finally.
});We do not recommend using callbacks because of callback hell, but they are supported by the send operation.
// callbacks.
client.send(command, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style. However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post on modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript
import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-pinpoint-email";
const client = new AWS.PinpointEmail({ region: "REGION" });
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.listConfigurationSets(params);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
}
// Promises.
client
.listConfigurationSets(params)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
});
// callbacks.
client.listConfigurationSets(params, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
/**
* The keys within exceptions are also parsed.
* You can access them by specifying exception names:
* if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
* const value = error.specialKeyInException;
* }
