AWS Certified SysOps Administrator SOA-C01 – Question499

ABC has three AWS accounts. They have created separate IAM users within each account. ABC wants a single IAM login URL such as https://abc.signin.aws.amazon.com/console/ for use by IAM users in all three accounts. How can this be achieved?

A.
Merge all the accounts with consolidated billing
B. Create the S3 bucket with an alias name and use the redirect rule to forward requests to various accounts
C. Create the same account alias with each account ID
D. It is not possible to have the same IAM account login URL for separate AWS accounts

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Explanation: Users can create an alias for they accounts, but the alias should be unique to the account. For example, the alias “abc” can be assigned to only one account. If a user wants the URL of the AWS IAM sign-in page to have a company name instead of the AWS account ID, he can create an alias for his AWS account ID.
