# Using SIP media applications
<a name="use-sip-apps"></a>

A SIP media application is a managed object that passes values from a SIP rule to a target AWS Lambda function. You can create, view, update, and delete SIP media applications. Be aware that you can view the details of any application, and other administrators can view your applications.

**Note**  
You need an AWS Lambda function before you can create a SIP media application. For more information, see [Getting started with AWS Lambda](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/getting-started.html).
