Prerequisites:

  • AWS user account login(s) with administrative access to the AWS Payer account for your AWS Organization(s).
  • Stratusphere™ FinOps user account login with the Admin or Owner role.

Instructions:

  1. Log into your AWS Payer account as an administrative user.

  2. Ensure you are in the us-east-1 region.

  3. Go to the AWS Organizations service and find the OU ID you want to be in scope for the integration (we recommend the “Root” user ID - e.g. “r-fwxf”). Copy this ID as it will be used in a later step.
