AWS-IAM Connector

Back to connectors list

What is AWS-IAM?

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the market-leading cloud platform. The Youzer connector for AWS IAM allows you to automatically synchronize and manage IAM (Identity and Access Management) users in your AWS account.

What can the AWS-IAM connector do?

The connector retrieves the following information about IAM users:

identity : Username (UserName), Unique identifier (UserId)
ARN: Full Amazon Resource Name of the user
Path: Organizational path in IAM
Creation date: Account creation date
Groups: List of IAM groups to which the user belongs (with catalog of available groups)

Automated actions

The
connector allows you to automate the following actions:
Account creation: Automatic creation of an IAM user with password and assignment to groups
Group management: Automatic addition or removal of IAM groups according to defined permissions

How does the AWS-IAM connector work?

Requirements

To
configure the connector, you will need:
• Access Key ID: Your AWS account access key
• Secret Access Key: Associated secret key

The AWS account must have sufficient IAM permissions to list, create, and modify users and groups (IAMFullAccess policy or equivalent).

Use cases

Automated onboarding: Creation of the IAM account with the right groups as soon as the employee arrives
Authorization management: Automatic assignment and removal of IAM groups according to position or project
Compliance and auditing: Centralized view of AWS access in Youzer to facilitate access reviews
Cloud governance: AWS access control aligned with your security policy [9:01 a.m.]

Leave the others out: they are either not yet done, too old, or too specific.
