Region / Account integration API

Open mmoltenb opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Feature name Region / Account integration API

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The good practice setup of an AWS Organization includes a multi-account configuration (e.g. by business unit or larger business application). If you have more than a handful of accounts and regions per account, the import of the accounts and regions using the provide web interface requires a lot of time to maintain and each time an account is provisioned automatically (e.g. using Landing Zone Solution or Control Tower) and manual steps are necessary

Describe the feature you'd like to see implemented Implement an AWS Perspective API that allows programmatic creation and management of integrated accounts and region to:

  • Import data to AWS Perspective
  • Deploy the account / region related CFN template

Describe the value this feature will add to AWS Perspective Increase acceptance for usage in larger organizations and accounts

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context Think of customers having 200+ accounts with more than one region enabled and planning to use AWS Perspective centrally.

Yes, I like this idea a lot.

Note: This aims to solve a similar problem to #1

This would be a great feature to have. I have a similar req., so that Account Vending Machine could automatically trigger the AWS Perspective account addition, instead of we manually doing it.

These APIs will be be implemented when we build #11 so we will track that in the main issue.
