# Managing Conformance Packs for Amazon Config Across all Accounts in Your Organization
Use Amazon Config to manage conformance packs across all Amazon Web Services accounts within an organization. You can do the following:
+ Centrally deploy, update, and delete conformance packs across member accounts in an organization in Amazon Organizations.
+ Deploy a common set of Amazon Config rules and remediation actions across all accounts and specify accounts where Amazon Config rules and remediation actions should not be created.
+ Use the management account in Amazon Organizations to enforce governance by ensuring that the underlying Amazon Config rules and remediation actions are not modifiable by your organization’s member accounts.
## Considerations
**For deployments across different regions**
The API call to deploy rules and conformance packs across accounts is Amazon Region specific. At the organization level, you need to change the context of your API call to a different region if you want to deploy rules in other regions. For example, to deploy a rule in US East (N. Virginia), change the region to US East (N. Virginia) and then call `PutOrganizationConfigRule`.
**For accounts within an organization**
If a new account joins an organization, the rule or conformance pack is deployed to that account. When an account leaves an organization, the rule or conformance pack is removed.
If you deploy an organizational rule or conformance pack in an organization administrator account, and then establish a delegated administrator and deploy an organizational rule or conformance pack in the delegated administrator account, you won't be able to see the organizational rule or conformance pack in the organization administrator account from the delegated administrator account or see the organizational rule or conformance pack in the delegated administrator account from organization administrator account. The [DescribeOrganizationConfigRules](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeOrganizationConfigRules.html) and [DescribeOrganizationConformancePacks](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeOrganizationConformancePacks.html) APIs can only see and interact with the organization-related resource that were deployed from within the account calling those APIs.
**Retry mechanism for new accounts added to an organization**
Deployment of existing organizational rules and conformance packs will only be retried for 7 hours after an account is added to your organization if a recorder is not available. You are expected to create a recorder if one doesn't exist within 7 hours of adding an account to your organization.
**Organization management accounts, delegated administrators, and service-linked roles**
If you are using an organization management account and intend to use a delegated administrator for organizational deployment, be aware that Amazon Config won't automatically create the service-linked role (SLR). You must manually create the service-linked role (SLR) separately using IAM.
If you do not have an SLR for your management account, you will not be able to deploy resources to that account from a delegated administrator account. You will still be able to deploy conformance packs to member accounts from management and delegated administrator accounts. For more information, see [Using service-linked roles](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/IAM/latest/UserGuide/using-service-linked-roles.html) in the *Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) User Guide*.
## Deployment
------
#### [ To deploy with the Amazon Web Services Management Console ]
To a deploy a conformance pack across an organization from the Amazon console, use Amazon Systems Manager. For more information, see [Deploy Amazon Config conformance packs](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/systems-manager/latest/userguide/quick-setup-cpack.html) in the *Amazon Systems Manager User Guide*.
------
#### [ To deploy with the Amazon API ]
For information on how to integrate Amazon Config with Amazon Organizations, see [Amazon Config and Amazon Organizations](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/organizations/latest/userguide/services-that-can-integrate-config.html) in the *Amazon Organizations User Guide*. Ensure Amazon Config recording is on before you use the following APIs to manage conformance pack rules across all Amazon Web Services accounts within an organization:
+ [DeleteOrganizationConformancePack](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_DeleteOrganizationConformancePack.html), deletes the specified organization conformance pack and all of the config rules and remediation actions from all member accounts in that organization.
+ [DescribeOrganizationConformancePacks](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeOrganizationConformancePacks.html), returns a list of organization conformance packs.
+ [DescribeOrganizationConformancePackStatuses](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeOrganizationConformancePackStatuses.html), provides organization conformance pack deployment status for an organization.
+ [GetOrganizationConformancePackDetailedStatus](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_GetOrganizationConformancePackDetailedStatus.html), returns detailed status for each member account within an organization for a given organization conformance pack.
+ [PutOrganizationConformancePack](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/config/latest/APIReference/API_PutOrganizationConformancePack.html), deploys conformance packs across member accounts in an Amazon Organization.
