(aws-cognito): SES region validity check is out of date

See original GitHub issue

What is the problem?

It appears that there is a list of SES supported regions in code, and this list has become out of date.

Reproduction Steps

Create a UserPool in eu-north-1 with an SES email config:

new UserPool(this, 'UserPool', {
  email: UserPoolEmail.withSES({
    fromEmail: 'test@example.com',
  }),
});

Synthesize the stack

What did you expect to happen?

The template synthesizes as expected, as SES is available in eu-north-1

What actually happened?

The following error is produced:

Your stack is in eu-north-1, which is not a SES Region. Please provide a valid value for 'sesRegion'

CDK CLI Version

Framework Version

Other information

Maybe we could remove this check entirely, and let it fail when deploying the CFN stack, if the SES region does not exist, to keep things more maintainable?

@straygar ah yeah looks like the docs are not up to date. Thanks for reporting this!

I think your suggestion is probably the way to go, just remove the check altogether and allow CloudFormation to fail if it is not configured correctly.
