Unique Secure External ID for AWS connectors
/rest/v1/aws/connectors
To adhere to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) vendor requirement best practices, Qualys is modifying the format of the external ID. AWS requires that vendors provide a unique external ID value amongst all their customers when providing a vendor account for a trust relationship. To accommodate this requirement and provide flexibility to our customers we have implemented the below new external ID format. The external ID consists of three parts. Two parts are pre-set by Qualys and the third part is editable by the customer.
