Hey Alexandre, 

Thank you for reaching out. We do currently support this feature. Find below a screenshot of our test account where the alias is shown. Would you please double check your IAM permission to ensure that there are no missing permissions? 

Please let us know if any further questions. 

Hi Stephane,

The polic assigned to the role used by Lucidscale is the last one described in the documentation, and contains the appropriate permission (iam:ListAccountAliases) :

Despite having them, I still do not retrieve the account alias. Here is an extract of the exported JSON data :

{"accounts":s{"accountId":"XXXXXXXXX","resources":{"route53":{"hostedZones":s]},"cloudFront":{"distributions":s]}},"accountAliases":s],"regions":s{"regionId":"eu-west-1" (...)

I do not know if it is an explanation, but I also do not find any mention of accoundAliases in the import summary (csv file), but only these IAM items :

IAM,AccessKey,--
IAM,Group,--
IAM,InstanceProfile,--
IAM,ManagedPolicy,--
IAM,OIDCProvider,--
IAM,Policy,--
IAM,Role,144
IAM,SAMLProvider,--
IAM,ServerCertificate,--
IAM,ServiceLinkedRole,--
IAM,User,--
IAM,UserToGroupAddition,--
IAM,VirtualMFADevice,--

Small remark : I list resources of eu-west-* regions.

Hi Alexandre,

Thanks for sharing those details. Could you try using the AWS CLI to return the alias value for the account in question? If you’re able to successfully return the account’s alias value via CLI(AWS’s documentation linked here), can you try using our CLI/JSON import method and confirm if the account alias renders for you when importing that way? 

Hi Adam,

I think I have figured out the “problem”.

I do not set alias for my AWS account. The AWS CLI command sends no result :

 aws iam list-account-aliases
{
    "AccountAliases": a]
}

But, when I use AWS Organizations, I can easily get the name attribute :

aws organizations describe-account --account-id 870XXXX453
{
    "Account": {
        "Id": "870XXXX453",
        "Arn": "arn:aws:organizations::xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "Email": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "Name": "XXX Workload Non Prod",
        "Status": "ACTIVE",
        "JoinedMethod": "CREATED",
        "JoinedTimestamp": "2023-10-06T11:52:30.505000+02:00"
    }
}

So, if I rephrase, my point is : “I would like (feature request) to retrieve the account name among the info imported from an AWS account, in order to display it in my architecture diagram”.
