Enabling or Disabling a Trusted Service

Scenarios

To leverage other cloud services for integrated organizational management, such as performing a security compliance audit across all accounts, you must enable trusted access for the corresponding service.

Constraints

• If the organization administrator disables trusted access for a cloud service, the service can no longer create a service-linked agency in the member accounts.
• If the organization administrator closes the organization or a member account leaves the organization, Organizations will clear its service-linked agency.
• Before disabling trusted access for the AOM service, delete multi-account instances on the AOM console and then disable the trusted access on the Organizations console. Otherwise, the multi-account instances will continue retrieving the member accounts' metric data.
• Before disabling trusted access for the LTS service, delete the configurations of multi-account log aggregation on the LTS console and then disable the trusted access on the Organizations console. Otherwise, the multi-account log aggregation will continue retrieving the member accounts' logs.

Enabling a Trusted Service

1. Log in to the Organizations console as an organization administrator or using the management account.
2. On the Services page, locate the target trusted service and click Enable Access in the Operation column.
3. In the displayed dialog box, click OK. If the status changes to Access enabled, the trusted service is enabled.
