AWS credentials

You can use these credentials to authenticate the following nodes:

Prerequisites

Create an AWS account.

Supported authentication methods

  • API access key

Using API access key

To configure this credential, you'll need:

  • The AWS Region : be sure to adjust this if you aren't using the default region
  • The Access Key ID : provided when you generate an access key
  • The Secret Access Key : provided when you generate an access key

Refer to the AWS Managing Access Keys documentation for instructions on generating and updating access keys.

Using a temporary security credential

You can configure the access key as a temporary security credential by toggling the slider on.

If you select this option, you must add a Session token to the credential.

Refer to the AWS Temporary security credential documentation for more information on working with temporary security credentials.

Virtual Private Cloud usage (custom endpoint)

If you use Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to host Mosaic Workflows, you can establish a connection between your VPC and these apps:

  • Rekognition
  • Lambda
  • SNS
  • SES
  • SQS
  • S3

To use these apps with a custom endpoint, toggle the Custom endpoint slider on and add the relevant custom endpoint(s).

If you don't add a custom endpoint, the Mosaic Workflows credential will use the default endpoint.
