Onboarding Cloud Accounts Overview

Illumio supports onboarding AWS, Azure, and OCI cloud accounts with Cloud.

For the steps to onboard the supported cloud accounts, see Onboard an AWS Cloud Account, Onboard an Azure Cloud Subscription, and Onboard an OCI Tenant.

The Onboarding Wizard

To make the onboarding process easier, Cloud provides a wizard to assist you with onboarding your cloud accounts. The wizard uses the following workflow:

Connect to the cloud account → Set up Access → Confirm and Save.

The overall onboarding process for all clouds follows this workflow with some minor differences.

The first time that you log in, the page displays a message that you need to add your cloud accounts to Cloud.

After you onboard a new cloud account, the Cloud Onboarding page appears with a new row for the account.
