Configuring AWS Accounts and Regions - AWS Service Management Connector

Configuring AWS Accounts and Regions

After you install the AWS Service Management Connector, you need to configure it. To do so, choose the Jira administration icon in the top right, then choose Add-ons.

  1. From the Service Catalog section on the left navigation menu, choose AWS Accounts.

  2. Choose Connect new account.

  3. Enter the account alias (used to identify the AWS account in the Connector).

  4. Enter the credentials for SC-sync-user. It is the access key identity and credentials for a sync user saved from the AWS configuration. SC-sync-user credentials can retrieve portfolios and products to make them available through Jira Service Management. You can set the allowed groups that can access them.

  5. Enter the credentials for SC-end-user. It is the access key identity and credentials for the end user saved from the AWS configuration. The SC-end-user credentials provision products on behalf of a Jira user.

  6. Add AWS Regions. It contains Service Catalog products and portfolios you want available in Jira Service Management.

  7. Choose Test Connectivity.

  8. Upon successful connection status, choose Connect.

Note

We recommend the Sync user and End user be new users in AWS, used only with AWS Service Management Connector. These users should have minimum required privileges. You can use the available AWS CloudFormation templates for your sandbox and development AWS accounts to configure and enable available integrations. For more information, see Baseline Permissions.
