There are restrictions to consider when using an Amazon SES sandbox. To review the specific sandbox restrictions, see Moving out of the Amazon SES sandbox. You must move your Amazon SES account out of the sandbox to fully use the Amazon SES service.Move an account out of the Amazon SES sandboxTo move an account out of the Amazon SES sandbox, follow these steps:1.    Review the AWS Regions mapping table in Amazon SES email configuration. The mapping table shows the Regions where Amazon SES identities can be integrated with Amazon Cognito user pools. You must make sure that you use compatible Regions before you move the Amazon SES account out of the sandbox.2.    Request production access for your Amazon SES account. After your production access request is approved, you can send email messages to any recipient.Important: You must switch to the new Amazon Cognito console experience to integrate Amazon Cognito with Amazon SES in the same Region.Verify an Amazon SES identityTo verify an Amazon SES domain identity, follow these steps:1.    Create a domain identity.2.    Verify one or more domains in Amazon SES.To verify an Amazon SES email identity, follow these steps:1.    Create an email identity.2.    Verify one or more email addresses in Amazon SES.Note: Cross-account integrations for Amazon Cognito and Amazon SES aren't supported.

The UpdateUserPool API configures the Amazon Cognito user pool with an Amazon SES identity.Example update-user-pool command:$ aws cognito-idp update-user-pool --user-pool-id example_pool_id --email-configuration SourceArn=arn:aws:ses:example_region:example_account_number:identity/example_domain,EmailSendingAccount=DEVELOPER,From=user@example.com --region example_regionImportant: Because the UpdateUserPool API resets the user pool's existing configuration, invoke the DescribeUserPool API first. Then, send all the existing user pool parameters to the UpdateUserPool API.Descriptions for the update-user-pool command:example_pool_id corresponds to the Amazon Cognito user pool ID. Example: ap-southeast-1_xxxxxxxx.arn:aws:ses:example_region:example_account_number:identity/example_domain is the ARN of your Amazon SES domain identity.user@example.com must be replaced with your email identity.example_region represents the Region where your Amazon Cognito user pool exists.
