# AWS News Feeds AWS News Feeds ## Introduction This dashboard provides recent AWS feeds including What’s New, Blog Posts, Videos and Security Bulletins. It allows you to filter news by AWS service, feed type and category and quickly focus on the most important topics. You can deploy dashboard in your AWS account and embed in your internal web sites. We keep our demo dashboard up to date and you are welcome to use it to stay updated with AWS related news and watch youtube videos directly from the demo dashboard. ## Demo Dashboard Get more familiar with Dashboard using the live, interactive demo dashboard following this [link](https://cid.workshops.aws.dev/demo?dashboard=aws-feeds) ![\[AWS Feeds\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/guidance/latest/cloud-intelligence-dashboards/images/aws-feeds.png) ## Prerequisites Deploy [Data Collection Lab](data-collection.md) and make sure AWS Feeds Module is selected. Version 3.0.8 or higher required. ## Deployment **Example** **Prerequisite**: To install this dashboard using CloudFormation, you need to install Foundational Dashboards CFN with version v4.0.0 or above as described [here](deployment-in-global-regions.md#deployment-in-global-region-deploy-dashboard) 1. Log in to to your **Data Collection** Account. 1. Click the Launch Stack button below to open the **pre-populated stack template** in your CloudFormation. [https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/home#/stacks/create/review?templateURL=https://aws-managed-cost-intelligence-dashboards.s3.amazonaws.com/cfn/cid-plugin.yml&stackName=AWS-News-Feeds-Dashboard¶m_DashboardId=aws-feeds¶m_RequiresDataCollection=yes](https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/home#/stacks/create/review?templateURL=https://aws-managed-cost-intelligence-dashboards.s3.amazonaws.com/cfn/cid-plugin.yml&stackName=AWS-News-Feeds-Dashboard¶m_DashboardId=aws-feeds¶m_RequiresDataCollection=yes) 1. You can change **Stack name** for your template if you wish. 1. Leave **Parameters** values as it is. 1. Review the configuration and click **Create stack**. 1. You will see the stack will start in **CREATE\$1IN\$1PROGRESS**. Oncecomplete, the stack will show **CREATE\$1COMPLETE** 1. You can check the stack output for dashboard URLs. **Note** **Troubleshooting:** If you see error "No export named cid-CidExecArn found" during stack deployment, make sure you have completed prerequisite steps. Alternative method to install dashboards is the [cid-cmd](https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/cloud-intelligence-dashboards-framework/blob/main/CID-CMD.md#command-line-tool-cid-cmd) tool. 1. Log in to to your **Data Collection** Account. 1. Open up a command-line interface with permissions to run API requests in your AWS account. We recommend to use [CloudShell](https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudshell). 1. In your command-line interface run the following command to download and install the CID CLI tool: ``` pip3 install --upgrade cid-cmd ``` If using [CloudShell](https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudshell), use the following instead: ``` sudo yum install python3.11-pip -y python3.11 -m pip install -U cid-cmd ``` 1. In your command-line interface run the following command to deploy the dashboard: ``` cid-cmd deploy --dashboard-id aws-feeds --data-collection-database-name optimization_data ``` Please follow the instructions from the deployment wizard. More info about command line options are in the [Readme](https://github.com/aws-solutions-library-samples/cloud-intelligence-dashboards-framework/blob/main/CID-CMD.md#command-line-tool-cid-cmd) or `cid-cmd --help`. ## Update Please note that dashboards are not updated with update of CloudFormation Stack. When new version of the dashboard template is released, you can update your dashboard by running the following command in your command-line interface: ``` cid-cmd update --dashboard-id aws-feeds ``` ## Authors + Francisco Tresgallo, Senior Technical Account Manager ## Contributors + Iakov Gan, Ex-Amazonian + Yuriy Prykhodko, Principal Technical Account Manager ## Feedback & Support Follow [Feedback & Support](feedback-support.md) guide **Note** These dashboards and their content: (a) are for informational purposes only, (b) represent current AWS product offerings and practices, which are subject to change without notice, and (c) does not create any commitments or assurances from AWS and its affiliates, suppliers or licensors.
