Deploy the solution

To deploy the solution, you use AWS CloudFormation. You can use the CloudFormation console, or download the CloudFormation template to deploy it on your own.

Note: You must have IAM permissions to launch CloudFormation templates that create IAM roles, and to create all the AWS resources in the solution. Also, you are responsible for the cost of the AWS services used while running this solution. For more information about costs, see the pricing pages for each AWS service.

Use the CloudFormation console

To deploy the solution using the CloudFormation console

1. Click the Launch on AWS button to open the solution in the CloudFormation console.

   

2. If necessary, sign in with your AWS account credentials.

3. You should see a Create stack page, with pre-populated fields that specify the CloudFormation template. Choose the Next button at the bottom of the page.

4. On the Specify stack details page, enter values for the following fields:

   • RootDomainName: Your registered domain name, such as example.com. This domain must be pointed to a Route 53 hosted zone.
   • NotionURL The Notion web link url containing the domain being used.

After entering values, choose the Next button. 5. On the Configure stack options page, you can optionally add tags and other stack options. When finished, choose the Next button. 6. On the Review page, you must scroll down and check the two boxes in the Capabilities section:

- **I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names.**
- **I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might require the following capability: CAPABILITY_AUTO_EXPAND**

These capabilities allow CloudFormation to create an IAM role that allows access

to the stack’s resources, and to name the resources dynamically. 7. Choose the Create stack button. 8. Wait for the CloudFormation stack to launch. The stack launches some nested stacks, and can take several minutes to finish. When it’s launched, the Status changes to CREATE_COMPLETE. 9. After the stack is launched, go to www.example.com to view your website (replace example.com with your domain name). You should see the website’s default content:
