Create IDBroker mapping

Learn how you can create the IDBroker mapping for the PutHDFS processor for your data flow. To enable your CDP user to utilize the central authentication features CDP provides and to exchange credentials for AWS access tokens, you have to map your CDP user to the correct IAM role.

This task is only needed if you use the PutHDFS processor for accessing your S3 bucket.

The option to add / modify the mappings is available from the Management Console in your CDP environment.

Access IDBroker mappings.
1. To access IDBroker mappings in your environment, click Actions > Manage Access.
2. Choose the IDBroker Mappings tab where you can provide mappings for users or groups and click Edit.
Add your CDP user or group and the corresponding AWS role that provides write access to your folder in your S3 bucket to the Current Mappings section by clicking the blue + sign.

note
You can get the AWS IAM role ARN from the Roles Summary page in AWS and can copy it into the IDBroker role field. The selected AWS IAM role must have a trust policy allowing IDBroker to assume this role.
