AWS

Setup

Setting up the AWS integration requires two steps. First, you must create a service account to use with Gallery. Then, you can copy the API Key and Secret for the service account to Gallery to complete the integration process.

Creating the Service Account

• Go to the IAM section of the AWS management console.

• Go to the Users tab, and click "Add Users"

The Users tab of the AWS console

• Make sure to enable programmatic access when you create your user

The Add user form with programmatic access enabled

• Add the permissions required for Gallery to spin up and tear down the resources that are used in your environment. It is good practice to use the minimal policy set for the new service account.

Build Information

The following environment variables are automatically filled in by Gallery:

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: The AWS access key

• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: The AWS secret key

No files are automatically injected into the build container as part of the build process.

Terraform Notes

When using terraform, make sure to indicate the region of the AWS resources, but you do not have to indicate the credentials in provider block. Your provider block, then, should look something like provider "aws" { region = "us-east-2" }
