  • Must not contain spaces or special characters.

To resolve the InvalidReceiptRuleSetName error, follow these steps:

Step 1: Verify the Rule Set Name

Ensure that the rule set name you are using meets the required format and constraints. Check for any typos or invalid characters.

Step 2: Use the AWS Management Console

Navigate to the Amazon SES Console and verify the existing rule sets. Ensure that the rule set name you are trying to use is listed and correctly formatted.

Step 3: Update the Rule Set Name

If the rule set name is incorrect, update it using the AWS CLI or SDKs. For example, using the AWS CLI, you can update the rule set name as follows:

aws ses update-receipt-rule-set --rule-set-name "CorrectRuleSetName"
