Sharing of Connections is now available in AWS CodeConnections

AWS CodeConnections now allows you to securely share your Connection resource across individual AWS accounts or within your AWS Organization. Previously, to create a Connection, you installed the AWS connector App for GitHub or GitLab or Bitbucket for each AWS account from which source access was required.

You can now use AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM) to securely share a Connection to your third-party source provider across AWS accounts. By using AWS RAM to share your Connection resource, you no longer need to create a Connection in each AWS account. Instead, you can create a Connection in an AWS account, and then share the Connection across multiple AWS accounts. By using AWS RAM, you can also automate sharing the connection across AWS accounts, reducing the operational overhead to support a multi-account deployment strategy. To apply fine grained access control, in the AWS account with which a Connection is shared, you can use IAM policies to manage what operations an IAM role can perform.
