Hey everyone! I’m diving into AWS and working on a project where I need to incorporate an SNS destination into my Lambda function using the Serverless Application Model (SAM). I’ve been following the documentation, but I’m still a bit puzzled about the best way to set this up.

Specifically, I’m unsure about the following:
1. How do I properly configure my SAM template to create an SNS topic?
2. What are the necessary permissions my Lambda function needs to publish messages to this SNS topic?
3. Are there any best practices I should keep in mind when integrating SNS with Lambda using SAM?

If anyone has experience with this or can share examples, I’d really appreciate your insights! Thanks in advance!
