(Optional) Authorizing CSS to Use SMN

Scenario Description

To use the OpenDistro alarm plugin (opendistro_alerting), authorize your Elasticsearch cluster to use SMN to send notifications. For details about how to use the OpenDistro alarm plugin, see Configuring SMN Alarms.

Service authorization is to delegate CSS to use other cloud resources. For example, you can authorize CSS to use SMN to send notifications.

Constraints and Limitations

Only the SMN service can be authorized.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the CSS management console as an administrator with IAM permissions.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Service Authorization.
  3. On the Service Authorization page, click Create Agency. In the dialog box displayed, confirm that the agency is successfully created.
    • If an agency has been created, "css_smn_agency exist, no need to created." is displayed in the upper right corner.
    • If you do not have the creation permission, a message indicating that the current user does not have the permission and you need to check the account permission on IAM is displayed in the upper right corner.
