# AWS Glue

Integrate, catalog, and govern AWS Glue assets in Atlan.

## Required permissions

- [Preflight checks for AWS Glue](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/preflight-checks-for-aws-glue/llms.txt): Before running the AWS Glue crawler, you can run preflight checks to validate credentials and IAM permissions.

## Setup options

- [Set up AWS Glue](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/set-up-aws-glue/llms.txt): Learn about set up aws glue.
- [Connect with IAM access keys](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/connect-with-iam-access-keys/llms.txt): The fastest path to connect Atlan to AWS Glue - create a read-only IAM user in your AWS account and give Atlan its key pair.
- [Connect with cross-account IAM role](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/connect-with-a-cross-account-iam-role/llms.txt): The recommended way to connect Atlan to AWS Glue - Atlan assumes a role you create, so no long-lived secret ever leaves your account.

## Crawl and mine

- [Crawl AWS Glue](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/crawl-aws-glue/llms.txt): Crawl metadata from AWS Glue Data Catalog to catalog jobs, workflows, tables, and data transformations. Extract lineage information after configuring AWS access permissions.

## Reference

- [How Atlan connects to AWS Glue](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/how-atlan-connects-to-aws-glue/llms.txt): Understand how Atlan securely connects to your AWS Glue Data Catalog to extract metadata.
- [Choose how Atlan connects to AWS Glue](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/choose-how-atlan-connects-to-aws-glue/llms.txt): Pick how Atlan proves its identity to AWS Glue - IAM access keys, a cross-account IAM role, or the self-deployed agent.
- [How cross-account access works](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/how-cross-account-access-works/llms.txt): Learn how Atlan reads your AWS Glue Data Catalog - the traffic path, the two ways of proving identity, and the two-key door that makes role-based access safe.
- [What does Atlan crawl from AWS Glue?](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/what-does-atlan-crawl-from-aws-glue/llms.txt): During an AWS Glue crawl, Atlan extracts metadata for Catalogs, Databases, Schemas, Tables, and Jobs. Reference tables map each Glue property to its Atlan asset.
- [Enrich Glue table statistics from S3 Inventory Files](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/aws-glue-table-statistics-from-s3-inventory/llms.txt): Enrich AWS Glue table statistics in Atlan using S3 Inventory report files. Reference for workflow configuration, S3 inventory format, and statistics-calculation behavior.
- [Atlan identity & network details](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/atlan-identity-and-network-details/llms.txt): What identity Atlan presents to your AWS account for AWS Glue, which values are tenant-specific, and exactly what to request from support in a single ticket.
- [Catalog permissions & Lake Formation](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/catalog-permissions-and-lake-formation/llms.txt): The exact IAM permissions Atlan needs for AWS Glue, plus the Lake Formation grants whose absence silently empties crawls instead of raising errors.
- [Special cases](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/special-cases/llms.txt): AWS Glue special cases - multiple AWS accounts, multiple regions, cross-account resource links, S3 Table Bucket federated catalogs, and the circuit breaker.
- [Glue assets package](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/package-reference/llms.txt): Programmatically crawl and manage AWS Glue assets in Atlan using the Python SDK (pyatlan). Reference for the Glue assets package.
- [Glue assets app](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/aws-glue/aws-glue-sdk-references-app-reference/llms.txt): Learn how to crawl AWS Glue Data Catalog assets and publish them to Atlan for discovery.

## Troubleshooting
