AWS RDS

AWS RDS

Configuration​

Type​

Resource type. In this case it would be aws_rds.

Configuration​

  • access_key: AWS access key
  • secret_key: AWS secret key
  • region: AWS region. e.g: us-west-1
  • session_token: AWS session token
  • account_id: AWS account ID

Fields​

List of available fields to add with resource add metadata. During scanning resources, scanner will only fetch data from the following fields.

  • instance_id
  • region
  • arn
  • tags

Schedule​

🔗 Check schedule format.

Example​

source:
  aws_rds_source_one:
      type: aws_rds
      configuration:
        access_key: "xxxx"
        secret_key: "xxxx"
        session_token: "xxxx"
        region: "x"
        account_id: "xxx"
      fields:
        - instance_id
        - region
        - arn
        - tags
      schedule: "@every 24h"

In the above example, we have added a source named aws_rds_source_one with type aws_rds. We have added some fields to add with each resource. We have also set the schedule to run this source every 24 hours.

Based on the above example, scanner_name would be aws_rds_source_one and scanner_type would be aws_rds. This is important to filter resources in Grafana dashboard.
