Publish S3 Bucket Notification to SQS - amazon-web-services

Question

I am trying to set up my S3 to notify my SQS Queue for a "PUT" Object Creation Event.
I am able to achieve this using CLI by:
aws --profile QA s3api put-bucket-notification --bucket <BUCKET_NAME> --notification-configuration '{ "QueueConfiguration": { "Id": "<EVENT ID>", "Event": "s3:ObjectCreated:Put", "Queue": "<QUEUE ARN>" } }'
Also able to do the same using Java:
NotificationConfiguration notificationConfiguration = new QueueConfiguration(queueArn, EnumSet.of(S3Event.ObjectCreatedByPut));
BucketNotificationConfiguration bucketNotificationConfiguration = new BucketNotificationConfiguration("DropShipInboundQueueDelivery", notificationConfiguration);
client.setBucketNotificationConfiguration(bucketName, bucketNotificationConfiguration)
However when I tried to something similar using CloudFormation template, I cannot find any way to trigger a notification to SQS. The only option I see that works and is documented is to trigger notification to SNS.
I have referred the Cloud Formation Documentation:
I looked at the AWS::S3::Bucket docs to look at the outer syntax. I saw NotificationConfiguration which I need to set
However the Notification Configuration can only contain a list of TopicConfigurations with was the old constructor in JDK before QueueConfiguration was supported
I tried doing something like this:
"NotificationConfiguration" :{
"QueueConfiguration": {
"Id": "DropshipInboundEventNotification",
"Event": "s3:ObjectCreated:Put",
"Queue": "arn:aws:sqs:*:*:Dropship-Inbound-qa"
}
},
But this as expected threw an error: "Encountered unsupported property QueueConfiguration" from amazon.
Looked at this API documentation
I would like to know if someone has been able to do this using CloudFormation Templates as thats how I am maintaining all the other AWS resources and do not want to do anything special for this particular feature.
Any help is appreciated.

There is no need "Id" in Cloudformation Template ( You can check from QueueConfiguration Doc ) and your second mistake, that is not "QueueConfiguration", it's "QueueConfigurations". Because of that you get an error that says "Encountered unsupported property QueueConfiguration"
It must be something like that.
"S3Bucket":{
"Type" : "AWS::S3::Bucket",
"Properties" : {
"AccessControl" : String,
"BucketName" : String,
"CorsConfiguration" : CORS Configuration,
"LifecycleConfiguration" : Lifecycle Configuration,
"LoggingConfiguration" : Logging Configuration,
"NotificationConfiguration" :
{ "QueueConfigurations" : [ {
"Event" : "s3:ObjectCreated:Put",
"Queue" : "arn:YOURQUEUEARN"
} ] },
"Tags" : [ Resource Tag, ... ],
"VersioningConfiguration" : Versioning Configuration,
"WebsiteConfiguration" : Website Configuration Type
}
}
While you are reading cloudformation template documents, you must be careful about "Required:" sections. If it is not required, you don't need to fill it, just remove that line from your template if you don't use it( Like S3 Tags ).
