Set up AWS IoT FleetWise - AWS IoT FleetWise

AWS IoT FleetWise is no longer open to new customers. Existing AWS IoT FleetWise customers can continue using the service. The Guidance for Connected Mobility on AWS provides guidance on how to develop and deploy modular services for connected mobility solutions that can be used to achieve equivalent capabilities as AWS IoT FleetWise.

Set up AWS IoT FleetWise

Before you use AWS IoT FleetWise for the first time, complete the steps in the following sections.

Sign up for an AWS account

To get started with AWS, you need an AWS account. There are two ways to sign up for AWS. If you want complete control over account configuration and where your content is stored, or if you have regulated workloads such as HIPAA or FedRAMP, use Sign up for AWS (advanced). If you are a new user and want to use a login you already own to sign in to AWS and create an AWS environment with preconfigured defaults in select AWS Regions, use Sign up for AWS.

Set up your AWS account

Note

You can use a service-linked role with AWS IoT FleetWise. Service-linked roles are predefined by AWS IoT FleetWise and include the permissions that AWS IoT FleetWise needs to send metrics to Amazon CloudWatch. For more information, see Using service-linked roles for AWS IoT FleetWise.

Get started in the console

If you aren't already signed in to your AWS account, sign in, then open the AWS IoT FleetWise console. To get started with AWS IoT FleetWise, create a vehicle model. A vehicle model standardizes the format of your vehicles.
