Amazon Q multi-account integration

0

I'm using Amazon Q with MS Teams integration, and it works great for one AWS account. How can I use it to query resources (like EC2 instances) across multiple accounts in my org (around 50 accounts)? Is cross-account support possible, and how do I set it up?

Yes, Amazon Q enables multi-account integration, allowing users to query resources across multiple AWS accounts efficiently. To implement this functionality, organizations must configure cross-account access using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) and AWS Organizations, ensuring secure and seamless interaction between accounts:

Hey,

Hope you're keeping well.

Amazon Q doesn’t natively pull resource data from multiple accounts unless those accounts are accessible through a common authenticated role or data source. For querying EC2 and other AWS resources across 50 accounts, you’ll need to set up cross-account IAM roles and consolidate access in a single “query” account, ideally using AWS Organizations. You can then integrate Amazon Q with that central account, and have it use AWS APIs or a data lake (via AWS Glue/Athena) that aggregates inventory from all accounts. A common pattern is to enable AWS Config or CloudWatch Events across the org, stream data to an S3 bucket in the central account, and point Amazon Q to that dataset.

Thanks and regards,
