Customize notification settings in IAM Roles Anywhere
You can customize notification settings based on your public key infrastructure. These settings are attached to your trust anchor and allow you to define custom thresholds for a notification event. IAM Roles Anywhere will consume these settings while evaluating for a notification event to send metrics/events/notifications through their respective notification channels.
Topics
Notification events
-
CA certificate expiry: IAM Roles Anywhere sends notification when a certificate authority (CA) in your trust anchor is approaching expiry.

End-entity certificate expiry: IAM Roles Anywhere sends notification when your end-entity certificate used to vend temporary security credentials is expiring soon.
