button to create a new IAM Role. Under Select type of trusted entity selectAnother AWS account

Also search for the policy created ,

, and select the checkbox. Then clickNext: Tags

Next: Review
.On the review page, add the name of the role
Zilla-SSO-Reader-Role
and optionally add a description. Ensure the Trusted entities account id matches Zilla’s account Id (087210011007) and that the Policies section containsZilla-SSO-Reader-Policy
, then clickCreate role
d.Once the role is created, you can search for it on the roles tab and click on the role to check its details.
On the role details page, double check the policy under Trust relationships that Trusted entities has Zilla Account ID (087210011007) and your domain name as ExternalId condition.
Notes:
Copy the Role ARN. For example:
arn:aws:iam::<YOUR_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>:role/Zilla-SSO-Reader-Role
and keep it handy for later.Typically organizations will have one MASTER AWS ACCOUNT under which they will setup multiple Users, Groups, Permission Sets and AWS Accounts. So it’s likely you will need to create the SSO Role and Policy creation only once against your MASTER AWS ACCOUNT.
Currently, the IAM Role and Policy creation to bring in SSO Users, Groups and Permission Sets is optional in Zilla.
