I would like to create a CloudWatch Alarm if a SSM Automation Failed or Executed with success. Has anyone gone through this?

If you are trying to trigger an action, like a notification, you can use EventBridge. See: Configuring EventBridge for Systems Manager events.
Hi Alberto,
Haven’t tried this directly but I would say you coul use cloudtrail https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/monitoring-cloudtrail-logs.html
And then creating an alarm from it

No, my trigger is executed by Run Command and Automation of AWS Systems Manager
You can write an EventBridge rule that looks for Failed SSM Automation events. Then pick a target like you would do with an alarm.
