Cost allocation Tags for sent Emails in Amazon Simple Email Service

0

Is it possible to use cost allocation tags in conjunction with Tags on Configuration Sets and Messages Tags to separate costs for emails sent through SES in the same AWS Account (e.g. on a per-project or client basis as defined through the tags)?

Yes, it's possible to track costs for emails sent through Amazon SES by leveraging cost allocation tags along with configuration sets and message tags. Here's how you can approach it:

Cost Allocation Tags: These allow you to assign metadata to AWS resources and are useful for tracking costs across different categories like projects or clients. In your AWS Billing Dashboard, you can activate and manage these tags to allocate costs accordingly.

Configuration Sets : In SES, configuration sets help you apply rules to your emails—such as tracking open rates or delivery metrics. You can also assign tags within these configuration sets to classify emails by various criteria, such as specific clients or projects.

Message Tags: These are added at the individual email level, allowing for more granular tracking of costs. Message tags, combined with configuration sets, let you pinpoint costs for specific projects or clients within the same AWS account.

By using cost allocation tags in combination with SES configuration sets and message tags, you can effectively allocate and manage costs on a per-project or per-client basis.
