# Prerequisites for setting up permissions on Amazon Redshift datashares
<a name="redshift-ds-prereqs"></a>

**Update default Data Catalog settings**  
To enable Lake Formation permissions for the Data Catalog resources, we recommend that you disable the default **Data Catalog settings** in Lake Formation. For more information, see [Change the default permission model or use hybrid access mode](initial-lf-config.md#setup-change-cat-settings).

**Update permissions**  
 In addition to data lake administrator permissions (`AWSLakeFormationDataAdmin`), the following permissions are also required to accept an Amazon Redshift datashare in Lake Formation:
+ `glue:PassConnection on aws:redshift`
+ `redshift:AssociateDataShareConsumer`
+ `redshift:DescribeDataSharesForConsumer`
+ `redshift:DescribeDataShares`

The data lake administrator IAM user has the following permissions implicitly.
+ data\$1location\$1access
+ create\$1database 
+ lakefomation:registerResource
