Enables this Amazon Web Services account to be able to use CloudWatch Application Signals by creating the AWSServiceRoleForCloudWatchApplicationSignals service-linked role. This service- linked role has the following permissions:

  • xray:GetServiceGraph

  • logs:StartQuery

  • logs:GetQueryResults

  • cloudwatch:GetMetricData

  • cloudwatch:ListMetrics

  • tag:GetResources

  • autoscaling:DescribeAutoScalingGroups

After completing this step, you still need to instrument your Java and Python applications to send data to Application Signals. For more information, see Enabling Application Signals.
