Amazon AppFlow now supports AWS CloudFormation

Posted on: Sep 18, 2020

Amazon AppFlow now supports AWS CloudFormation for creating and configuring Amazon AppFlow resources such as Connector profile and Amazon AppFlow Flow along with the rest of your AWS infrastructure—in a secure, efficient, and repeatable way. Amazon AppFlow is a fully managed integration service that enables customers to securely transfer data between AWS services and software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. The Amazon AppFlow APIs and SDK give developers programmatic access to Amazon AppFlow functionality, enabling developers to set up flows between source and destinations supported by Amazon AppFlow, create connector profiles and execute flows programmatically.  

AWS CloudFormation provides a common language for you to model and provision AWS and third party application resources in your cloud environment. AWS CloudFormation allows you to use programming languages or a simple text file to model and provision, in an automated and secure manner, all the resources needed for your applications across all regions and accounts. This gives you a single source of truth for your AWS and third party resources. AWS CloudFormation support for Amazon AppFlow is available in all regions where Amazon AppFlow is available.
