Allow Immuta to create secure views of your external tables through one of these methods:
Configure the integration with an existing database that contains the external tables: Instead of creating an immuta database that manages all schemas and views created when Redshift data is registered in Immuta, the integration adds the Immuta-managed schemas and views to an existing database in Redshift
Configure the integration by creating a new immuta database and re-create all of your external tables in that database.
For an overview of the integration, see the Redshift overview documentation.
A Redshift cluster with an AWS row-level security patch applied. Contact Immuta for guidance.
The enable_case_sensitive_identifier parameter must be set to false (default setting) for your Redshift cluster.
The Redshift role used to run the Immuta bootstrap script must have the following privileges when configuring the integration to
Use an existing database:
ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE for the database you configure the integration with, as you must manage grants on that database.
CREATE USER
