Setting up AWS Elemental MediaLive as a Trusted Service

Every time a user creates a channel, they must attach an IAM role that sets up MediaLive as a trusted entity for that channel. You must give the user the permissions to set up this trusted entity.

You give this permission when you create the user. You create a policy called MediaLiveTrustedEntityAccess and attach it to the group that the users belong to. For detailed information, see Step 1: Create Customer Managed Policies.
