Getting started

1. (Optional) Ensure there is at least one AWS Connector with System scope available – refer to Providing AWS Security Credentials for details.

   •  While Tasks for AWS still works without Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo), using shared AWS Connectors is highly recommended due to the implied organizational and security benefits.

   • No Charge: Usage of Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo) is free for Tasks for AWS licensees, see Do I need an Identity Federation for AWS license when using it from another Utoolity app like Automation with AWS or Tasks for AWS?.

2. (Optional) Decide whether and how you want to maintain your task configuration as code – refer to Providing task configuration as code for details.

3. Start building and deploying with the available tasks.
