# Create an assume role configuration

Create a service account assume role configuration to facilitate cross-account access. This supports access from a management account to a member account, or from a trusted account to a trusting account. All related accounts are automatically loaded, avoiding the need to add them individually.

## Before you begin

Make sure that the accessor account credentials are configured in the ServiceNow AI Platform.

Role required: sn\_itom\_ccg.scheduling\_admin

## About this task

If permanent credentials aren't defined for the member account, Cloud Configuration Governance checks the Cloud Service Account Assume Role Config \[sn\_itom\_ccg\_service\_account\_assume\_role\_config\] table to identify the special configuration associated with the management account. It then uses the management account credentials to generate temporary credentials for the member accounts. If the configuration exists in the table, Cloud Configuration Governance uses the temporary credentials acquired by specifying a role and its configuration in the Amazon Web Services \(AWS\) Security Token Services API AssumeRole action.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Cloud Configuration Governance** > **Assume Role Config**.

2.  Select **New**.

3.  Fill the values on the Service Account Assume Role Config form.

    For a description of the form fields, see [Cloud Configuration Governance Service Account Assume Role Config form](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-operations-management/itom-cloud-accelerate/ccg-service-account-assume-role-config-form.md).

4.  Select **Submit**.
