EmailContact

Source: src/AWS/NotificationsContacts/EmailContact.ts

An AWS User Notifications Contacts email contact — an email address that can be attached to a notification configuration as a delivery channel.

Contacts are created in the unverified inactive state; activation is a human email-confirmation loop (AWS emails the address a confirmation link), so Alchemy provisions the contact and leaves activation to the address owner. Contacts are immutable (no update API) — changing the name or address replaces the contact; tags update in place.

Creating an Email Contact

Section titled “Creating an Email Contact”

Basic email contact

import * as NotificationsContacts from "alchemy/AWS/NotificationsContacts";


const contact = yield* NotificationsContacts.EmailContact("OnCall", {
  emailAddress: "oncall@example.com",
});
// contact.status === "inactive" until the address owner confirms

Named contact with tags

const contact = yield* NotificationsContacts.EmailContact("OnCall", {
  name: "platform-oncall",
  emailAddress: "oncall@example.com",
  tags: { team: "platform" },
});
