Connect AWS

Connect a single AWS account via CloudFormation, or connect multiple accounts from your AWS Organization.

Connect AWS Organization

Multiple Accounts

Discover and connect multiple AWS accounts from your organization in one flow. Ideal for enterprises with many accounts.

Best for multi-account setups

  • • Discover all accounts in your AWS Organization
  • • Select which accounts to connect
  • • Optional auto-enrollment for new accounts

Guided CloudFormation setup

Recommended

We prefill the CloudFormation Quick Create link with your External ID and stack name. Launch the stack, then confirm below to finish the connection.

Faster, safer connect

  • • Stack name and External ID are prefilled
  • • No manual ARN copy/paste
  • • Uses the published CloudCostLite template

Stack launches in your chosen console region; Cost Explorer remains global.

Stack: CloudCostLite-*
External ID: loading…

Opens the AWS console Quick Create in a new tab with your External ID prefilled.

We’ll assume the CloudCostLite role with the External ID above, validate the account, and mark it as connected.

Manual configuration (fallback)

Use existing IAM credentials or a custom role ARN if you cannot run the CloudFormation helper.
