-When creating a Gateway, you need to provide an execution role that will be used by the Gateway to access AWS resources or external services. This role defines the permissions that the Gateway has when making requests to other services. Based on the type of target, the role would either have permissions to access the AWS resources configured for the target, or for external resources, the role would have permissions to acquire the needed auth to invoke the external resources. You will configure these after you have setup your gateway while [Adding targets](./gateway-building-adding-targets.html).
