Input Transformation in CloudWatch EventBridge Rule

I have a simple requirement to send notification on update of WAF rules. For this I created a cloud trail event for management events. In ClouWatch eventbridge I added a new rule with Event Pattern as :

    {
  "source": ["aws.waf", "aws.wafv2"],
  "detail-type": ["AWS API Call via CloudTrail"],
  "detail": {
    "eventSource": ["waf.amazonaws.com", "wafv2.amazonaws.com"],
    "eventName": ["UpdateWebACL", "CreateWebACL", "DeleteWebACL", "UpdateRule", "CreateRule", "DeleteRule", "UpdateRuleGroup", "CreateRuleGroup", "DeleteRuleGroup"]
  }
}

In Target I gave my SNS topic and as Input Transformation I gave :

{
    "eventName": "$.details.eventName",
    "timestamp": "$.time",
    "user": "$.details.userIdentity.userName",
    "webACLName": "$.details.requestParameters.name"
}

And a simple template :

"EventName: <eventName>"
"WebACL: <webACLName>"
"Time: \"<timestamp>\""
"User: <user>"

When a webACL is updated it is sending me the notification but other than time the other information are empty.

I could not find API Trail under event "AWS events" as shown [![Input Configuration][1]][1]

If instead of "Input Transformation" I choose "Part of matched event" and then give $.details in "Specify the part of the matched event", I can see the below details

    "userIdentity": {

}

Is there any straightforward transformation to get the values from the event or should I use lambda and custom logic to extract the details.

can you change your input transformation from $.details to $.detail and try:

old:

{
    "eventName": "$.details.eventName",
    "timestamp": "$.time",
    "user": "$.details.userIdentity.userName",
    "webACLName": "$.details.requestParameters.name"
}

corrected:

{
    "eventName": "$.detail.eventName",
    "timestamp": "$.time",
    "user": "$.detail.userIdentity.userName",
    "webACLName": "$.detail.requestParameters.name"
}
