# Connect AWS Accounts

To connect your AWS account with OpsNow, follow the steps provided on the webpage. Log in to your AWS account, create a stack in AWS, and add your accounts. This process ensures that your accounts are properly linked and that permissions are granted for seamless integration with OpsNow.

### 1. Create Stack

* Please click **Create Stack & Add Accounts** button.
