Update an Onboarded AWS Account

After you add your cloud account to Prisma Cloud, you may need to update the Prisma Cloud stack to provide additional permissions for new policies that are frequently added to help you monitor your cloud account and ensure that have a good security posture. When you update the CFT stack, Prisma Cloud can ingest data on new services that are supported. These CFTs are available directly from the Prisma Cloud administrative console.
In addition to updating the CFT stack for enabling permissions for new services, you can use this workflow to update the account groups that are secured with Prisma Cloud or to enable or disable the security capabilities and permissions. If you enable a security capability that you had not enabled during the initial onboarding, make sure you
Download IAM Role CFT
again and complete the required steps in order for the updated permissions to be granted to Prisma Cloud.
