# Automating AMB Access Proposal Notifications with CloudWatch Events
<a name="automating-proposals-with-cloudwatch-events"></a>

Amazon CloudWatch Events enables you to automate your AWS services and respond automatically to system events. Events from AWS services are delivered to CloudWatch Events in near real time on a best-effort basis. You can write simple rules to indicate which events are of interest to you, and what automated actions to take when an event matches a rule. With AMB Access, you can monitor CloudWatch Events events to respond to proposals, including invitations sent to your AWS account to join a network, and notification that proposals are `APPROVED` or `REJECTED`. Some examples include notifying an Amazon SNS topic or an AWS SMS queue when an invitation is sent or when a proposal made by a member in your account changes status.

For more information, see the [Amazon CloudWatch Events User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/events/).
