=== Sns output plugin

include::{include_path}/plugin_header.asciidoc[]

==== Description

SNS output.

Send events to Amazon's Simple Notification Service, a hosted pub/sub
framework.  It supports various subscription types, including email, HTTP/S, SMS, and SQS.

For further documentation about the service see:

  http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/sns/latest/api/

This plugin looks for the following fields on events it receives:

 * `sns` - If no ARN is found in the configuration file, this will be used as
 the ARN to publish.
 * `sns_subject` - The subject line that should be used.
 Optional. The "%{host}" will be used if `sns_subject` is not present. The subject
 will be truncated to 100 characters. If `sns_subject` is set to a non-string value a JSON version of that value will be saved.
 * `sns_message` - Optional string of message to be sent. If this is set to a non-string value it will be encoded with the specified `codec`. If this is not set the entire event will be encoded with the codec.
 with the @message truncated so that the length of the JSON fits in
 `32768` bytes.

==== Upgrading to 2.0.0

This plugin used to have a `format` option for controlling the encoding of messages prior to being sent to SNS.
This plugin now uses the logstash standard <<codec,codec>> option for encoding instead.
If you want the same 'plain' format as the v0/1 codec (`format => "plain"`) use `codec => "s3_plain"`.

[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-access_key_id"]
===== `access_key_id` 

  * Value type is <<string,string>>
  * There is no default value for this setting.

This plugin uses the AWS SDK and supports several ways to get credentials, which will be tried in this order:

1. Static configuration, using `access_key_id` and `secret_access_key` params in logstash plugin config
2. External credentials file specified by `aws_credentials_file`
3. Environment variables `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
4. Environment variables `AMAZON_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AMAZON_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
5. IAM Instance Profile (available when running inside EC2)

[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-arn"]
===== `arn` 

  * Value type is <<string,string>>
  * There is no default value for this setting.

Optional ARN to send messages to. If you do not set this you must
include the `sns` field in your events to set the ARN on a per-message basis!

[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-aws_credentials_file"]
===== `aws_credentials_file` 

  * Value type is <<string,string>>
  * There is no default value for this setting.

Path to YAML file containing a hash of AWS credentials.
This file will only be loaded if `access_key_id` and
`secret_access_key` aren't set. The contents of the
file should look like this:

[source,ruby]
----------------------------------
    :access_key_id: "12345"
    :secret_access_key: "54321"
----------------------------------


[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-proxy_uri"]
===== `proxy_uri` 

  * Value type is <<string,string>>
  * There is no default value for this setting.

[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-publish_boot_message_arn"]
===== `publish_boot_message_arn` 

  * Value type is <<string,string>>
  * There is no default value for this setting.

When an ARN for an SNS topic is specified here, the message
"Logstash successfully booted" will be sent to it when this plugin
is registered.

Example: arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:770975001275:logstash-testing


[id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-region"]
