# Retrieving Amazon SES event data from Firehose
<a name="event-publishing-retrieving-firehose"></a>

Amazon SES publishes email sending events to Firehose as JSON records. Firehose then publishes the records to the AWS service destination that you chose when you set up the delivery stream in Firehose. For information about setting up Firehose delivery streams, see [Creating an Firehose Delivery Stream](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/firehose/latest/dev/basic-create.html) in the *Amazon Data Firehose Developer Guide*.
