Credentials for Cost Management

With the Controller, you can fully automate the Cost Management lifecycle in all supported regions.

To create a cost management profile, you need to provide credentials that allow programmatic access to Amazon AWS and Azure.


AWS Cloud Credentials

Option 1: With Access Key

You will create an AWS "Cloud Credential" which will be configured to use an Access Key from your AWS Account for Cost Management through the controller. Once created, you can reuse the cloud credential to create as many cost management profiles as necessary.

Refer AWS Cloud Integration for Cost Management AWS Credential setting

Option 2: With Role ARN

You will create an AWS "Cloud Credential" which will be configured to use a Role ARN from your AWS Account for Cost Management through the controller. Once created, you can reuse the cloud credential to create as many cost management profiles as necessary.
