Creating Amazon Athena steps

Connect to your Athena integration from Superblocks by creating steps in Application APIs, Workflows and Scheduled Jobs. You can configure a Superblocks Athena integration with read only, read/write, or write only IAM Users. You can then configure a Superblocks Athena step to read from a database, as well as modify/delete data.
