SES: EventDestination does not have eventBridge as a destination option

[anishsundarjee]

Describe the bug

I'm trying to add the default event bus as the event destination for my mailing events.

My use case is that I want to save delivery information about the emails being sent from SES for compliance reasons.
Am able to achieve this if I setup the configuationSet and event destination via the AWS CLI, however I can't see the option to add eventBridge as a destination in cdk.

Expected Behavior

Be able to set EventBridge as a event destination

Current Behavior

not able to set EventBridge as a event destination

Reproduction Steps

  appState.sesConfigurationSet = new ses.CfnConfigurationSet(appState.stack, `${PREFIX}ConfigurationSet`, {
    name: `${PREFIX}ConfigurationSet`,
    reputationOptions: {
      reputationMetricsEnabled: true,
    },
  });

  appState.sesEventDestination = new ses.CfnConfigurationSetEventDestination(appState.stack, `${PREFIX}EventDestination`, {
    configurationSetName: appState.sesConfigurationSet.name || "",
    eventDestination: {
      matchingEventTypes: ['delivery'],
      name: `${PREFIX}EventDestination`,
      enabled: true,
      eventBridgeDestination: {
        arn: appState.defaultEventBus.eventBusArn || "",
      },
      // set event bridge as destination with name AWS_SES_SEND_EMAIL and rules for bounce, complaint and delivery
    },
  });

Findings:

• Based on CfnConfigurationSetEventDestination CDK documentation, there is no property for EventBridge as destination option.
• However, AWS::SES::ConfigurationSetEventDestination EventDestination specifies EventBridgeDestination as one of the options.
• CloudFormation spec here also has EventBridgeDestination for AWS::SES::ConfigurationSetEventDestination.EventDestination.

CFN spec was updated 2 days ago in commit cdklabs/awscdk-service-spec@65cd752. It might take few days for changes to flow to CDK.

@anishsundarjee You might want to use CDK v2 since v1 is deprecated.
