In order to complete SES domain verification I need 2 things:
- Verify the domain using Amazon SES domain verification TXT records
- Setup easy DKIM for the domain using CNAME DNS records
Everything can be done via API as usual (I'm using SES API through a CloudFormation custom resource).
I'm trying to verify the domain AND create DKIM using AWS.SESV2 (2019).
The problem is that AWS.SESV2.createEmailIdentity creates both domain verification code and DKIM.
But I'm unable to get back the domain verification code from the API response... I can find the 3 DKIM tokens in the API response but I cannot get the verification token although it has been created and it is visible in the AWS console.
I need to get the domain verification token from the API call because I'm doing IaaC. I don't want any manual copy/paste from the AWS console.
I can see the DKIM tokens in the doc bellow but where is the domain verification token that has been created?
Also I'm struggling understanding the difference between AWS.SES (2010) and AWS.SESV2 (2019). Can everything be done using this 2 APIs? Which one for what use-case?
It look like domain verification can be done using AWS.SES.verifyDomainIdentity but there is nothing similar in AWS.SESV2.
However DKIM can be done using both interface using AWS.SES.verifyDomainDkim and AWS.SESV2. createEmailIdentity.
I'm trying to compose with both API
- Using AWS.SES.verifyDomainIdentity
- And then AWS.SESV2.createEmailIdentity
But I'm facing an error when using AWS.SESV2.createEmailIdentity
{
