You configure the data source settings related to the use of Compose, including the default Compose connection, on the Compose tab of the Settings page.

• For an overview of all settings, refer to Configure Compose for OCF Data Sources.

• For steps on configuring Compose authentication for Redshift, refer to:

  • SSO authentication via AWS IAM Identity Center: Configure Redshift Compose SSO with IAM Identity Center
