Customer Hosted Deployment Parameters
Before You Begin
Before you begin the Customer Hosted deployment, ensure that you have met these AWS deployment requirements.
TetraScience Recommendation
These tables describe the list of parameters you will use when you perform an Customer Hosted deployment. TetraScience recommends that you review and become familiar with these parameters prior to deployment.
CloudFormation Parameters
These tables list the parameters you must enter when you perform a Customer Hosted deployment.

| UserAuditLogGroupSuffix | user-action-audit-log | Legacy. Do not change the default value. |
Service Parameters and Secrets in SSM
Containers running in ECS need runtime parameters. These parameters may contain sensitive data, such as OAuth tokens, so they are stored encrypted, using a specialized AWS service for secrets management, SSM Parameter Store. The parameters are not shared with TetraScience, so self-hosted customers using a Customer Hosted deployment will have to create them using this procedure.
| Parameter | Details | Needed only if |
|---|---|---|
| /tetrascience/production/ECS/ts-service-link-file/BOX_CLIENT_ID | BOX Oauth 2.0 custom app Client ID. | BOX Integration is enabled |
| /tetrascience/production/ECS/ts-service-web/INT_BOX_CLIENT_ID | Same value as above. | BOX Integration is enabled |
