Migrating from Amazon Simple Email Service API V1 to V2
I'm interested in the new feature that allows me to send attachments in my email. Previously, my flow sent the temporary public link to see the result of my merged PDF. However, it may not be the case! So, I'll try to move to the V2 API. Reference AWS Documentation Installing the new SDK and removing the previous SDK I changed the SDK dependency from V1 to V2. Reference: - + Changing the code Previously, I had a feature flag for using HTML format. However, I will remove it and use the HTML format as the default.

So, it's not only uploading to the S3, but also using the file for the attachment. Currently, I use a bad approach, which downloads the uploaded file into S3, which increases the network call. The better approach is to reopen the file and upload it again. However, I'll still evaluate the current state. When necessary, I'll do more enhancements to my existing environment. So, at least, I will need to reduce the workload time. Note: Sadly, my attachment (the PDF) gives multiple blank pages. Most likely, I lost some metadata after uploading the file. Which is not the case when I use the temporary link. I'll try to find out later. :(
