# AssumeRoleWithCustomToken [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

## Introduction

To integrate with custom authentication methods using the [Identity Management Plugin](../iam/identity-management-plugin.md)), MinIO provides an STS API extension called `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken`.

After configuring the plugin, use the generated Role ARN with `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken` to get temporary credentials to access object storage.

# How to monitor MinIO server with Grafana [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

[Grafana](https://grafana.com/) allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored. Create, explore, and share dashboards with your team and foster a data driven culture.

## Prerequisites

- **Removing a site** is not allowed from a set of replicated sites once configured.
- All sites must be using the **same** external IDP(s) if any.

licensing is complex and nuanced. It is for that reason we strongly encourage using experts in licensing to make any such determinations around compliance instead of relying on apocryphal or anecdotal advice.

[MinIO Commercial Licensing](https://min.io/pricing) is the best option for applications that trigger AGPLv3 obligations (e.g. open sourcing your application). Applications using MinIO - or any other OSS-licensed code - without validating their usage do so at their own risk....

## Server-Side Encryption

MinIO supports two different types of server-side encryption ([SSE](#sse)):

- **SSE-C**: The MinIO server en/decrypts an object with a secret key provided by the S3 client as part of the HTTP request headers. Therefore, [SSE-C](#ssec) requires TLS/HTTPS.

# Federation Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io) *Federation feature is deprecated and should be avoided for future deployments*

This document explains how to configure MinIO with `Bucket lookup from DNS` style federation.

## Get started

### 1. Prerequisites

Install MinIO - [MinIO Quickstart Guide](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html#quickstart-for-linux).

### 2. Run MinIO in federated mode
