AWS data-exchange documentation change
Summary
Updated the private offer creation process with new console navigation, added detailed configuration steps for pricing/duration, clarified buyer account requirements, and included new steps for legal terms and offer distribution.
Security assessment
The changes are procedural updates for creating private offers, with no evidence of security vulnerabilities being addressed. Modifications include console URL updates, workflow restructuring, and clarification on payer/linked account acceptance processes - all operational improvements without security implications.
