Approve or reject a subscription request in Amazon DataZone

Amazon DataZone allows you to find, access and consume the assets in the Amazon DataZone catalog. When you find an asset in the catalog that you want to access, you must subscribe to the asset, which creates a subscription request. An approver can then approve or reject your request.

You must be a member of the owning project (the project that published the asset) to approve or reject a subscription request.

To approve or reject a subscription request

1. Navigate to the Amazon DataZone data portal URL and sign in using single sign-on (SSO) or your AWS credentials. If you’re an Amazon DataZone administrator, you can navigate to the Amazon DataZone console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/datazone and sign in with the AWS account where the domain was created, then choose Open data portal.

2. In the data portal, choose Browse projects list and select the project that contains the asset with the subscription request.

3. Navigate to the Data tab, then choose Incoming requests from the left navigation pane.

4. Locate the request and choose View request. You can filter by Pending to see only requests that are still open.

5. Review the subscription request and reason for access, and decide whether to approve or reject it.

6. To approve, select between the two options:

   • Full access: If you choose to approve the subscription with full access option, the subscriber will get access to all the rows and columns in your data asset.

   • Approve with row and column filters: To limit access to specific rows and columns of data, you can choose the option to approve with row and column filters. For more information, see Fine-grained access control to data in Amazon DataZone.

     • Select Choose filters, and then from the drop down select one or more available filters you want to apply to the subscription.

     • To create a new filter you can choose Create new filter option, which opens a new page to create a new row or column filter. For more information, see Create column filters in Amazon DataZone and Create row filters in Amazon DataZone.

7. (Optional) Enter a response that explains your reason for accepting or rejecting the request.

8. Choose either Approve or Reject.

As the project owner, you can revoke the subscription at any time. For more information, see Revoke an existing subscription in Amazon DataZone.

To view all subscription requests, see Amazon DataZone events and notifications.

Note

Amazon DataZone supports fine-grained access control for AWS Glue tables, Amazon Redshift tables, and Amazon Redshift views.
