Email Subject for Email Customized for SNS Topic Email Endpoint without using Lambda

Question

Have a business use case to be implemented without Lambda where a Email notification is sent to the subscribers of the SNS Topic with Customized Subject & Email Body when Code is pushed into the AWS CodeCommit repo.

Scenario 1... For sending the notification solution, the AWS CodeCommit - Notify (Alert) - Manage Notifications - used where the end email recd. via Target SNS topic is HARD CORDED Email Subject & Email Body with details that couldn't be customized. Sample Email Subject: UPDATE: AWS CodeCommit ap-south-1 push: repository_name Sample Email body: Hello, The following repository in AWS CodeCommit has changed: . The repository was changed by the IAM user: username Branches: . The problem is with this soluton is, not able to customize either the subject or the Email Body.

Scenario 2... For sending the notification solution, the AWS EventBridge - Rule - used with input transformer where the end email recd. via linked Target SNS topic.  The Email Subject was Hard CODED as AWS Notification Message & Email Body got Fully Customized. Can can any one help what are workarounds that I can customize the Subject using EventBridge input transformation.

NOTE: THE USE OF LAMBDA IS RESTRICTED TO IMPLEMENT THE REQUIREMENT

Hello,

Unfortunately, the workaround in both the scenarios would be introducing a proxy Lambda function which manually adds a subject. As of this moment, the ability to add/modify notifications sent from services via SNS does not exist, although its a popular feature request. You can keep an eye on the AWS What's New page and the Amazon SNS blog, as all new feature requests and enhancements are posted there.
