Configure the IAM permissions required to use the Amazon DataZone data portal

Amazon DataZone data portal (outside the AWS Management Console) is a browser-based web application where users can go to catalog, discover, govern, share, and analyze data in a self-service fashion. The data portal authenticates users with IAM credentials or existing credentials from your identity provider through AWS IAM Identity Center.

You must complete the following procedures in order to configure the required permissions for any user, group or role that wants to use the Amazon DataZone data portal or catalog:

Attach required policy to a user, group, or role for Amazon DataZone data portal access

You can access the Amazon DataZone data portal by using either your AWS credentials or your single sign-on (SSO) credentials. Follow the instructions in the section below to set up the permissions required to access the data portal with your AWS credentials. For more information about using Amazon DataZone with SSO, see Setting up AWS IAM Identity Center for Amazon DataZone.

Note

Only IAM principals in your domain's AWS account can access the domain's data portal. IAM principals from other AWS accounts cannot access the domain's data portal.

Complete the following procedure to attach the required policy to a user, group, or a role. For more information, see AWS managed policies for Amazon DataZone.

  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the IAM console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Users, User groups, or Roles.
