Configure the MID Server to retrieve the temporary security credentials associated with an IAM role.

Avant de commencer

Role required: discovery_admin or sn_cmp.cloud_admin (for Cloud Provisioning and Governance)

Procédure

1. Navigate to All > Discovery > MID Servers.
2. Select a MID Server installed on an Amazon EC2 instance within the relevant AWS service account.
3. Open the Configuration Parameters related list.
4. Click New.
5. In the configuration parameter form, select mid.aws.instance_profile_name in the Parameter name field.
6. Enter the name of the IAM role attached to the EC2 Instance in the Value field.
   Remarque :

   AWS Cloud Discovery for "mid.aws.instance_profile_name" accepts both "role name" and "full ARN" as valid parameter values. For example, both of the following values are acceptable:

   • arn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-type/resource-id
   • resource-id

   The MID Server uses the same IAM role that is set up for the corresponding AWS service account. For more information, see Configure access using temporary credentials based on trusted AWS accounts with AWS credentials.

   For operational information about creating AWS roles, refer to the Amazon documentation on Creating a role to delegate permissions to an IAM user.
7. Click Submit.
   The new parameter is listed in the MID Server record.
