CROSS ACCOUNT ROLE (PREFERRED)
Step 1. In the Delivery section, click on the Export Data tile to start setting up the connector.
Step 2. Select Database/File Store from the Integration Type dropdown list, then select S3.
The next screen will show the existing connectors and an option to create a new one. Click on Add New Account to proceed.
Step 3. Fill out the Integration and Bucket name to which you want to export the data. Click on the "link" in "Please use this link to create cross-account role".
Step 4. After clicking the link, you will be able to access the Quick Create Stack template on the S3 UI that has been pre-built by us to help you create the ARN role faster. The ExternalID and OtherAccountNumber are automatically generated, you only need to define the S3 bucket name, which you want to grant the Accern Platform access to. Click Create Stack to proceed.
***Please be advised that when you use this pre-built template to create the role, you're granting the Accern platform the ListObjectsInBucket and AllObjectsAction permissions. Let us know if you wish to customize these permissions.
Step 5. An ARN role for Accern to access the specified S3 bucket has now been generated.
Copy the entire role information under the "Value" column and paste it in the "Role ARN" field on Accern Platform UI. Click Next to proceed.
Step 6. On this window, fill out the Delivery Tile name which will appear on the UI, define the folder path in the S3 bucket, select the file format that you’d like to export. Click Add to complete the data connector creation process. A tile will be generated in the Delivery section. This can be toggled on or off for your use cases.
*** For the “Save Folder Path” field, please exclude the bucket name and only enter the path to the desired destination folder. For example, if this is the S3 URL of the folder:
s3://client-historical/accern-text-data/bucket/, you'll only need to use accern-text-data/bucket
