Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Allow Move2Cloud to execute AWS CLI operations through delegated or temporary access.
Setup steps
- 1Create an IAM role in the AWS account you want to manage.
- 2Add the Move2Cloud principal to the trust policy and require the External ID shown in the Cloud Integration form.
- 3Attach a least-privilege policy matching the actions you want to allow, for example read-only inventory, EC2 operations, logs access or billing visibility.
- 4Copy the AWS Account ID, Role ARN, External ID and default region into Move2Cloud.
- 5Save the account, then validate access before using it in Cloud Console.
Fields in Move2Cloud
- Connection method
- Default region
- AWS Account ID
- IAM Role ARN or temporary credentials
- External ID for managed role access
Notes
- Use IAM roles for production. Avoid storing long-lived access keys.
- For temporary credentials, paste STS credentials with an expiration date.
- For local profiles, agent-core must run where the AWS CLI profile is configured.
