Accounts
Every account of your AWS organization belongs to some OU. To place an account to an OU, you add the account to the accounts
property of the OU in question. The accounts
property is a list that accepts plain account ids and account objects that let you provide additional account-specific configuration.
AWS account id may begin with zero and that is why account ids must always be strings in Takomo configuration, i.e., the id must be quoted like so "012345678901".
Example
Here's an example of how to put accounts into OUs. The account 876754648373 is defined with object notation. The other accounts are defined as plain account ids.
Additional configuration
The account id is the only required information for accounts. With object notation, you can provide additional information.
Name
You can specify the account name with the name
property. The name helps you to identify the account. Takomo uses the name to verify that the account configuration is valid, i.e., there actually exists an account with the given id and name.
Please note that Takomo won't update the actual account name to match what you have defined in the configuration.

Email
You can specify the account email with the email
property. The email helps you to identify the account. Takomo uses the email to verify that the account configuration is valid, i.e., there actually exists an account with the given id and email.
Please note that Takomo won't update the actual account email to match what you have defined in the configuration.
