Managing data sharing using the console

With Amazon Redshift, you can manage data sharing with writes using the console to control access and govern data across Amazon Redshift clusters and AWS accounts. The following sections provide step-by-step instructions on configuring and managing data sharing with writes using the Amazon Redshift console.

Use the Amazon Redshift console to manage datashares created in your account or shared from other accounts.

You need permissions to create, edit, or delete datashares. For information, see Managing permissions for datashares in Amazon Redshift.

• If you are a producer cluster administrator, you can create datashares, add data consumers, add datashare objects, create databases from datashares, edit datashares, or delete datashares from the CLUSTERS tab.

  From the navigation menu, navigate the Clusters tab, choose a cluster from the cluster list. Then do one of the following:

  • Choose the Datashares tab, choose a datashare from the Datashares created in my namespace section. Then do one of the following:

    • Creating datashares

      When a datashare is created, you can add datashare objects or data consumers. For more information, see Adding datashare objects to datashares and Adding data consumers to datashares.

    • Editing datashares created in your account

    • Deleting datashares created in your account

  • Choose Datashares and choose a datashare from the Datashares from other clusters section. Then do one of the following:

    • Creating datashares

    • Creating databases from datashares

  • Choose Databases and choose a database from the Databases section. Then choose Create datashare. For more information, see Creating databases from datashares.

Note

To view databases and objects within databases or to view datashares in the cluster, connect to a database. For more information, see Connecting to a database.
