Creating data requests
You can use the simple reporting template to request any type of data from your partners. For example, you can request compliance information such as product brochure, safety report, or lab testing results of a product. You can also upload your own form for the partner to download, update information, and repload to answer the data requst.
To create a data request, do the following:
In the left navigation pane on the AWS Supply Chain dashboard, choose Sustainability.
The Sustainability page appears.
Choose the Data Requests tab.
On the Data Requests page, choose Create data request.
The Create data requests page appears.
On the Create data requests page, under Select data request type, select the data request type.
Under Select data request options, enter the details for the data request.
Under Select the task input options, select Ask for a text response to receive the data request response in a text field.
Select Ask for a file response if you want your partners to upload a response file to your data request.
Choose Save template to save the details you entered and reuse again for additional data requests (due date and notes field will not be saved, as these change per data request).
The Save template page appears.
Enter the name and description for your new template and choose Save template. Make sure you enter a name and description that is meaningful since you will use the name and description to find the template, understand it's usage, and reuse to request data.
