Honeycomb Kinesis Events API

The Kinesis Events API endpoints allow Honeycomb to process streaming events from Amazon Kinesis. Refer to the [Honeycomb AWS integrations](https://docs.honeycomb.io/integrations/aws/how-aws-integrations-work/) documentation for more information. ## Authorization It is recommended that an Ingest API key is used for sending events. A Configuration API key will work, and must have the **Send Events** permission. Learn more about [API keys here](https://docs.honeycomb.io/configure/environments/manage-api-keys/).
