SES Suppression List as CSV

0

My SES Suppression List has 800± bounced emails. I would like to download this List (e.g., as CSV, Excel, etc. — without using code!) so that I can remove outdated emails from my computer. I do not see that as an option, which is surprising, as it seems like that would be a VERY desirable feature. Help!

Hello.

As of November 2024, the management console allows you to view the suppression list in bulk, but there is no procedure to download it without using the AWS CLI or SDK.

  • TY for a prompt response. Being able to download (by clicking a button) a CSV file of the whole Suppression List, would be enormously helpful. Please seriously consider it as an improvement.

  • I'm not an AWS employee, so I can't help you. I recommend that you submit your UI requests via "Feedback" at the bottom left of the management console. a

Unfortunately, there isn't a direct way to download the Amazon SES suppression list as a CSV or Excel file without using code. However, there is a method to export the suppression list data, which you can then process to create a spreadsheet.

You can export the suppression list as a JSON file using the Amazon SES console or API. This JSON file will contain all the email addresses that are currently on your account-level suppression list.

To do this through the console:

  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon SES console.
  2. Navigate to the Suppression List section.
  3. Look for an option to export or download the list.

Once you have the JSON file, you would need to process it to convert it into a CSV or Excel format. While this typically involves using code or a data conversion tool, it's the closest option available to getting your suppression list in a spreadsheet format without directly coding.

It's important to note that this process will only give you access to your account-level suppression list, not the global suppression list maintained by Amazon SES. The global list is not queryable or directly accessible by customers.

If you're looking to manage your bounced emails more effectively, consider regularly updating your mailing lists based on the bounce notifications you receive from SES. This can help you maintain a clean list without needing to frequently export and process the entire suppression list.

  • TY. I followed your instructions and went to the Suppression List section. However I found no option to export or download the Supression List. I even searched the page for "export" and "download" and there were no hits.
