This section describes how to configure the credential required by the automation actions in the AWS Incident Manager Automation PowerPack.

Creating a SOAP/XML Credential to Access SL1 PowerFlow

 

After you have integrated your AWS and PowerFlow systems, you must create a SOAP/XML credential so that the automation actions included in the PowerPack can access your PowerFlow system. The AWS Incident Manager Automation PowerPack includes a template for a SOAP/XML credential that you can edit for use with your PowerFlow system.

To define a SOAP/XML credential using the example credential:

  • Go to the Credential Management page (System > Manage > Credentials).
  • Click the wrench icon () for the PowerFlow AWS Incident Manager credential. The Credential Editor modal window appears:
    • An image of the Credential Editor page.
  • Supply values in the following fields:
  • Profile Name. Type a new name for the credential.
  • URL. Type the URL for your SL1PowerFlow system.
  • HTTP Auth User. Type the username for your SL1PowerFlow user account.
  • HTTP Auth Password. Type the password for your SL1PowerFlow user account.
  • Click the Save As button to save the new SOAP/XML credential.
  • SL1 assigns the credential an ID number. Take note of the ID number that appears in the Credential Editor heading, as you will need this when editing the input parameters of the automation actions included in the AWS Incident Manager AutomationPowerPack.
