   1. Click Properties tab
   2. Click Associate IAM role
   3. Select AttributionS3DataLoader role (and additional roles if you need them)

4. Create Redshift user

1. Go to redshift query editor: https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/sqlworkbench/home?region=us-east-1#/client
2. Create a user and DB for Attribution data loader:

CREATE USER attribution WITH PASSWORD 'PRE_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD_GOES_HERE';
CREATE DATABASE attribution WITH OWNER attribution;

We will generate a strong password and send it to you in pre-encrypted form.

If you want to generate password yourself, please use this SQL code:

SELECT 'md5' || md5('PLAIN_PASSWORD' || 'attribution');
