Account Settings

See integrations for the procedure of configuring the accounts so that they can be integrated with SSMCM.

Account inventory allows you to create and manage accounts within SSMCM. These accounts will correspond to real accounts in the cloud provider.

In this section we are initially shown a table similar to those that we can find in other inventories or sections, with pager, filters and other actions already described as global search, by columns, filtering by columns, export, etc.

In addition to the options already mentioned, the table actions button incorporates a button to add a new account.

The following columns are presented in the table of accounts by default:

  • Account ID
  • Supplier
  • Name
  • Alias
  • Tags
  • Service Managers: modal link with contact information associated with the account

Among the actions, we find common actions, such as viewing, editing and deleting, as well as specific actions:

  • AWS Management Console link: Only available for AWS accounts.
  • Update: Launches the inventory update on that account.
  • View: Displays detailed account information in a modal.
  • Edit: allows you to edit the account through a form identical to the add account.
  • Delete: allows you to delete the account after confirming the action.

  • Account contacts: allows you to view the contacts associated with that account and perform administrative tasks on them.

  • Terraform Infrastructure Deploy: allows deploy infrastructure through terraform.

When deploy new infrastructure, although there are fields that are common to all deployments, there are fields that are specific depending on the module we want to deploy.

  • Terraform organization manager (required)
  • Terraform Module (required)
  • Workspace name (required)
  • Workspace description

Specific fields:

  • Once you select the Terraform Module you want to deploy, the necessary parameters will appear to be able to execute the deployment. These will depend on the type of module you want to deploy.

When adding or editing an account, although there are fields that are common to all suppliers, there are fields that are specific to each supplier, so if we select a supplier in the drop-down, the form will show specific fields in each case. Commons
