IAM Role Setup


Create an IAM role

To allow Bastillion for EC2 to access to your instance information, you'll need to create an 3rd party IAM role.

1) Create a 3rd party IAM role with Account ID 652647611965

Also, you'll need to register the Bastillion for EC2's public key to allow for application authentication when provisioning EC2 instances. Otherwise, you will have to add this key to the instances manually or supply a custom key pair for an existing EC2 key.
