Details

Publishes a message to a topic or an application endpoint. Messages can be the same for all endpoints or customized so that, for example, a short 140-character message is sent to SMS endpoints that are subscribed to a topic while longer messages are sent to email endpoints, etc. The allowed message types are: default, email, email-json, sqs, sms, http, https, and application.

Value

If successful, a character string containing a message ID. Otherwise, a data structure of class “aws_error” containing any error message(s) from AWS and information about the request attempt.
