# Creating failure alerts by automating with EventBridge for Amazon Chime SDK messaging
<a name="event-bridge-events"></a>

The Amazon Chime SDK delivers Events when there is an error invoking your processor Lambda function. Events are sent regardless of the `Fallback` action specified for the processor when creating a channel flow. You can write simple rules to specify these events, plus the automated actions to take when any of those events matches a rule. For more information, see the [Amazon EventBridge User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eventbridge/latest/userguide/). When errors like these occur, then depending on the `Fallback` action that you configure, members on the channel can't send messages, or messages will flow through the channel with no processing. For more information about the `Fallback` action, refer to [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime-sdk/latest/APIReference/API_messaging-chime_Processor.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime-sdk/latest/APIReference/API_messaging-chime_Processor.html) in the Amazon Chime SDK API reference. 

This example shows a typical failure event.
