AWS Organizations and Linked Accounts Billing

If you prefer to avoid adding the master payer account to Cloudaware when using AWS Organizations, set up individual linked account billing reports and add them as a separate integration for each account.

1 Set up AWS linked account billing integration

Cloudaware should have S3: GetObject permission for the bucket where the billing report is stored.

1. Log in to your Cloudaware account. Go to Admin → N Configured in Amazon Organizations & Accounts. Select the AWS account in question → click three dots and click "Download CloudFormation Template" to download the template.
