Keep up the great work, much helpful as it's simple and straight forward, precise to the topic, good stuff.🙌

[@AntonPutra]

Thanks

[@grantjeffers127]

It is a treat to find a video that is so concise and on-topic at exactly the right level. The Terraform bits went by pretty fast -- could you please post a link to your example code?

[@AntonPutra]

Thanks Grant! You can find link in the description.

Hi Anton if I understand the code well this is done to handle only a single alarm type. If we want to register multiple alarms what would the Lambda Function look like? Great video and it's very helpful thank you!

Great video, But I'm having trouble adjusting' Timezone, can you help me customize it?

[@AntonPutra]

I think you need to do it in code, convert utc to your timezone

[@user-so2dk2pr4j]

Yes , but I am beginner
Can you have a sample for me?
Thankyou for reply Comment :)

[@sjokkz]

can't get register and resolve alarm to work for different cw alarm, not with instanceid

[@AntonPutra]

Any errors?

[@sjokkz]

@@AntonPutra no errors, simply the lambda doesn't get triggered when the status is changed i.e from In Alarm to OK

[@sjokkz]

@Anton tnx for the reply and tnx for the tutorial, found the issue, I was missing the ok_actions and in my tf code, hence the resolve_alarm function was not triggered.
but what is most interesting. in the alarm on AWS console UI ok_actions and insufficient_data_actions are tied to the lambda arn, before specifying in tf.

[@AntonPutra]

@@sjokkz check if you receive sns messages from cw if yes check your logic

[@thapelomdaka8595]

Can we get the terraform code as well

[@AntonPutra]

with a new tutorial sure

[@pridhviraj9392]

Great video, I have pasted the code in the lambda function and deployed changes but gettin the following error when testing it
{
"errorMessage": "'Records'",
"errorType": "KeyError",
"requestId": "92aef6ab-8aca-47bb-8445-65f3e4eb94d6",
"stackTrace": [
" File \"/var/task/lambda_function.py\", line 138, in lambda_handler
sns_message = json.loads(event[\"Records\"][0][\"Sns\"][\"Message\"])
"
]
}
can you help me with this

[@AntonPutra]

maybe you made a typo..
