Create connections
When you create a connection, you define how CloudFlow accesses the resources your flows need. You can either:
-
Create from existing permissions: Reuse the existing permissions for AWS accounts, Azure tenants, or GCP resources already connected to DoiT Cloud Intelligence. Select the connected cloud configurations to import. This is the only way to create an Azure connection. You are the connection Owner. You can assign access to other DoiT users in Manage permissions.
-
Create a new cloud connection: Create an AWS or GCP connection, depending on the cloud resources your flow is accessing. Select this if you want to define scope, policies, and deploy IAM roles or service accounts for the connection. You can assign access to other DoiT users in User access.
-
Create an Admin API connection: Create an OpenAI or Anthropic Admin API connection so your flows can call provider administration APIs. These connections are independent of cloud IAM roles and of the OpenAI and Anthropic billing integrations.
Select Create connection from existing permissions when accounts, tenants, or resources are already connected to DoiT Cloud Intelligence and you only need a connection for flows. Azure connections always use this option. Select Create connection for AWS or GCP when you need a dedicated CloudFlow IAM role or service account, custom scope (for example AWS organizational units), or separate policies. For OpenAI and Anthropic Admin API connections, select the provider tab and then Create connection.
