Use the AWS CLI to send a message to the SQS queue and observe the event delivered to the Lambda function:
1. Delete the stack:
sam delete --stack-name STACK_NAME.1. Send the SQS message:
aws sqs send-message --queue-url ENTER_YOUR_SQS_QUEUE_URL --message-body "Test message"2. Retrieve the logs from the Lambda function:
aws logs describe-log-streams --log-group-name '/aws/lambda/ENTER_YOUR_FUNCTION_NAME' --query logStreams[*].logStreamName.Cleanup
1. Delete the stack:
cdk destroy.2. Confirm the stack has been deleted:
aws cloudformation list-stacks --query "StackSummaries[?contains(StackName,'STACK_NAME')].StackStatus"Created by:
