Minimal IAM Permissions for Launchpad

Launchpad for Data Fusion Community Edition requires AWS access keys. When creating access keys using IAM, what are the permissions that Launchpad requires? I know that the "AdministratorAccess" policy is sufficient, but is there a more minimal set of permissions that are recommended?

Hi @Andrew.Mulder,

Tried asking Heather Benoit to help answer this question

Hi @zoya.farberov

Did you receive any response? The question remains unanswered.

@Alex Putkov., @heather.benoit

Hi Heather, hoping you can help with this question, or point out who would be the right resource?

Hi Alex, internal inquiries often get very low priority. We may need to bring this up in the next meeting with Jonathan, to see if anything could be imporved.

Hi Andrew,

We use terraform.io to build the infrastructure in AWS - it does need to create, read, update, and delete these resources -

resource "aws_key_pair" "launchpad-provision"
resource "aws_instance" "master"
resource "aws_instance" "slave_1"
resource "aws_instance" "slave_2"
resource "aws_security_group" "datafusion-public"
resource "aws_security_group" "datafusion-private"
resource "aws_security_group" "datafusion-inter-private"
resource "aws_security_group" "datafusion-private-to-public"
resource "aws_vpc" "datafusion"
resource "aws_internet_gateway" "public"
resource "aws_subnet" "datafusion-public-subnet"
resource "aws_route_table" "public"
resource "aws_route_table_association" "public"
resource "aws_eip" "nat"
resource "aws_nat_gateway" "nat"

Terraform doesn't have a way to output a nice policy document, but this should get you started. Let me know if you come up with something or would like some help with it.

Thanks,
-Eric
