    Note

    For message attributes, if you provide Name, Path and Value, then, only the attributes provided for the Name and the Path fields will be taken into consideration. You can assign any one of the message attributes for either the Path or the Value field. In case, if you do not want to specify a message attribute path in the Path field, then you can directly specify the message attribute value in the Value field. It is not essential to provide the message attributes for both the Path and Value fields. You can even create the SNS data source without adding any message attributes, as the message attributes are only optional for configuring the SNS data source.
