Summary

A customer (flagged via NISC evaluation trial) ruled out SSO Admin account assignments because the docs page's walkthrough covers permission sets but never mentions CreateAccountAssignment/ListAccountAssignments at all — not documented as supported, not documented as unsupported, just absent.

Extended the walkthrough with three new steps, following the same structure as the existing permission set steps:

  • Create a group in Identity Store, since an account assignment needs a principal (cross-links to the Identity Store service doc).
  • Create an account assignment via CreateAccountAssignment.
  • List account assignments via ListAccountAssignments.

I double-checked this with my own LocalStack auth token before writing it up: agent ran a full flow end-to-end against a live container (create permission set → create Identity Store group → create account assignment → list account assignments), so the example output blocks are real captured responses, not invented ones. This mattered here specifically because src/data/coverage/sso-admin.json shows aws_validated: false and no test suites for these two operations, so I didn't want the agent to guess writing JSON output based on assumption alone.

Test plan

  • npx astro build completes successfully (417 pages built)
  • Link validator confirms all internal links are valid
  • Verified end-to-end against a live LocalStack container using our own auth token; all example output in the new sections is real captured output, not fabricated

CreateAccountAssignment and ListAccountAssignments work but weren't
covered by the walkthrough at all. Add a group-creation step (Identity
Store) plus create/list account assignment steps, following the same
structure as the existing permission set walkthrough.

Verified end-to-end against a live LocalStack container: created a
permission set, an Identity Store group, an account assignment, and
listed it back. Output blocks are real captured responses.
