Scheduled AWS Lambda function doesn't work

Question

I try to schedule the lambda poll data from Redshift every minute

so I configure the lambda function with:

event source type: CloudWatch Events - Schedule
schedule expression: rate(1 minute)
Enable event source: yes

but the lambda function isn't triggered at all, it gives the right result every time I start it by pushing the "test" button.

How are you testing whether the lambda was invoked? Does it show up in CloudWatch logs? Note the lambda must have a role policy allowing cloudwatch: actions. — ataylor
@ataylor I let lambda send a message to SNS which then fire an email to me — Hello lad

answer by myself, after having created the event source it has to be enabled explicitly.
