Welcome

Welcome to the Amazon Pinpoint Email API Reference. This guide provides
information about the Amazon Pinpoint Email API (version 1.0), including supported
operations, data types, parameters, and schemas.

Amazon Pinpoint is an AWS service that you
can use to engage with your customers across multiple messaging channels. You can use
Amazon Pinpoint to send email, SMS text messages, voice messages, and push notifications. The
Amazon Pinpoint Email API provides programmatic access to options that are unique to the
email channel and supplement the options provided by the Amazon Pinpoint API.

If you’re new to Amazon Pinpoint, you might find it helpful to also review the Amazon
Pinpoint Developer Guide. The Amazon Pinpoint Developer
Guide provides tutorials, code samples, and procedures that demonstrate
how to use Amazon Pinpoint features programmatically and how to integrate Amazon Pinpoint functionality into
mobile apps and other types of applications. The guide also provides information about
key topics such as Amazon Pinpoint integration with other AWS services and the limits that apply
to using the service.

The Amazon Pinpoint Email API is available in several AWS Regions and it provides an endpoint
for each of these Regions. For a list of all the Regions and endpoints where the API is
currently available, see AWS Service Endpoints in
the Amazon Web Services General Reference. To learn more about AWS Regions, see
Managing AWS
Regions in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

In each Region, AWS maintains multiple Availability Zones. These Availability Zones
are physically isolated from each other, but are united by private, low-latency,
high-throughput, and highly redundant network connections. These Availability Zones
enable us to provide very high levels of availability and redundancy, while also
minimizing latency. To learn more about the number of Availability Zones that are
available in each Region, see AWS Global Infrastructure.
