AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate — Question 406

A SysOps administrator has created an AWS Service Catalog portfolio and has shared the portfolio with a second AWS account in the company. The second account is controlled by a different administrator.
Which action will the administrator of the second account be able to perform?

Answer options

• A. Add a product from the imported portfolio to a local portfolio.
• B. Add new products to the imported portfolio.
• C. Change the launch role for the products contained in the imported portfolio.
• D. Customize the products in the imported portfolio.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When an AWS Service Catalog portfolio is shared across accounts, the recipient account receives a read-only copy of the portfolio. The administrator of the receiving account cannot modify the portfolio, change its launch roles, or add new products to it directly. They can, however, add products from the imported portfolio to their own local portfolios to manage access for their local users.
