Instead, you can create an IAM role that has permissions to access CloudWatch and a trust relationship with Grafana's AWS account. Grafana's AWS account then makes an STS request to AWS to create temporary credentials to access your AWS data. It makes this STS request by passing along an `externalID` that's unique per Cloud account, to ensure that Grafana Cloud users can only access their own AWS data. For more information, refer to the [AWS documentation on external ID](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_create_for-user_externalid.html).
