Before you install
- Requires AWS CDK v1 environment; AWS CDK v1 is end-of-support as of 2023-06-01 and migration to v2 is recommended.
- Low install friction with a wheel distribution.
- However, this is AWS CDK v1, which reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01 and is no longer being updated; users should migrate to AWS CDK v2 instead.

What it is and what it does
This package is a CDK construct library for AWS SNS topic subscriptions. It provides Python classes that wrap SNS subscription logic, allowing you to attach SNS topics to multiple endpoint types—SQS queues, Lambda functions, email addresses, SMS numbers, and HTTPS URLs—using a simple `.add_subscription()` method call on a topic object.
The library handles common setup tasks like automatically granting KMS key permissions when subscribing encrypted queues, and supports CloudFormation parameters for dynamic endpoint values. However, the package is part of AWS CDK v1, which reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01; AWS recommends migrating to AWS CDK v2 for ongoing support and updates.
Use it for
- Route SNS notifications to SQS queues for asynchronous processing and decoupling from Lambda.
- Trigger Lambda functions directly from SNS topic events without manual permission setup.
- Send email notifications to subscribers by adding email subscriptions to an SNS topic.
- Deliver SMS alerts to phone numbers via SNS topic subscriptions.
- Subscribe HTTPS endpoints to receive SNS messages as webhook POST requests.
