# Amazon SNS & Better Stack integration

This integration allows you to create Better Stack incidents from Amazon SNS notifications automatically.

## Connect Amazon SNS and Better Stack

1.  Go to **Integrations** → [Importing data](https://uptime.betterstack.com/team/0/integrations/importing-data ";_blank").
2.  Find the **Amazon SNS** card and click **Add**.
3.  Name your integration so you can recognize it later, then click **Continue**.
4.  Copy the **SNS endpoint** URL.

### In Amazon SNS

1.  In the [AWS SNS console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/sns/v3/home#/subscriptions ";_blank"), go to **Subscriptions** → **Create subscription**.
2.  For **Topic ARN**, select the topic whose notifications should create incidents.
3.  For **Protocol**, select **HTTPS**.
4.  For **Endpoint**, paste the SNS endpoint URL you copied from Better Stack.
5.  Leave **Enable raw message delivery** unchecked.
6.  Click **Create subscription**.

Better Stack confirms the subscription automatically, and its status changes to **Confirmed** within a few seconds. Every message published to the topic now opens a Better Stack incident.

You're done. 🎉
