CodeCommit

Overview

Firefly integrates with AWS CodeCommit to connect your infrastructure code repositories with your cloud resources. This integration enables powerful features like tracing cloud resources back to their defining code ("Jump to Code") and automatically creating Pull Requests for newly codified resources and drift remediation.

Prerequisites

An AWS account with access to your infrastructure repositories in CodeCommit
Appropriate permissions to create IAM roles and CloudFormation stacks
Repositories containing Terraform, CloudFormation, or other IaC files you want to connect to Firefly

Setup Procedure

Log in to your AWS account with permission to create CloudFormation and IAM AWS resources
Copy your AWS account ID (located at the top right corner of the AWS console) to the clipboard
In Firefly, select Settings > Integrations
Select Add New > AWS CodeCommit
Enter a descriptive name in the Nickname field
Paste the AWS account ID
Select Launch Stack

Features Enabled

Jump to Code: Trace resources in your cloud inventory back to the CodeCommit file and specific line that defines them
Automated Pull Requests: When Firefly codifies an unmanaged resource, it can commit the new infrastructure code as a Pull Request
IaC Tracking: Firefly maintains awareness of which resources are defined in code and which are not
Drift Remediation: Firefly can detect drift between the code and the actual resources and create a Pull Request to fix it

Best Practices

Ensure the IAM role has appropriate permissions to access your CodeCommit repositories
Regularly review Pull Requests created by Firefly
Consider organizing your repositories to make it easier to manage access

Troubleshooting

For authentication issues:
- Verify AWS credentials and IAM role permissions
- Check if the IAM role has been properly created and has the necessary policies
- Ensure the CloudFormation stack was deployed successfully
For repository access issues:
- Verify the integration has access to the required repositories
- Check IAM permissions if applicable
- Review Firefly integration logs
