How to Connect Your AWS Account
The connection takes ~5 minutes and creates a single read-only IAM Role using AWS CloudFormation.
No access keys are shared. Access can be revoked at any time by deleting the Role.
Open the following link (make sure you are logged in to the AWS account you want to connect):
Scroll down to "Capabilities", check the box:
"I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names", and click "Create stack".
Once the status shows CREATE_COMPLETE (about a minute), open the "Outputs" tab and send us the value of "RoleArn".
Run the following command:
aws cloudformation create-stack \ --stack-name SynCloud-Assessment \ --template-url https://syncloud-aws-connect-public-001.s3.amazonaws.com/aws-connect/SyndevScannerRole-Broad.yaml \ --parameters ParameterKey=ExternalId,ParameterValue=syndev-xo29609-ys \ --capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM \ --region us-east-1
After the process is complete, send us the RoleArn using:
aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name SynCloud-Assessment \ --region us-east-1 --query "Stacks[0].Outputs"
