Use Step Function to run Glue Job in a different account

Question

Is it possible to run the Glue Job from Step Function in the different accounts?

There is the official doc https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/connect-glue.html how to run Glue Job from Step Function, but it doesn't say anything about cross-account execution.

Is it possible to do this? If not, then what the best way to call Glue Job from Step Function in a different account?

Answer 1

Yes, Step Functions now supports Cross Account service integrations including for Glue. See the docs here for more info:
