# Configure dataset for AWS

Configure how the knowledge graph processes AWS metrics from Cloud Provider Observability. This configuration determines which AWS environments and regions to monitor and how to filter the data.

For background on dataset configurations, environment labels, and cloud region labels, refer to [Manage dataset configurations](../).

Complete the following steps to edit a dataset configuration for AWS:

1. Sign into Grafana Cloud and click **Observability > Configuration**.
2. Click **Connect knowledge graph**.
3. Next to AWS, click **Edit**.
4. Complete the following fields:
   
   Expand table
   
   | Field              | Description                                                                                                                                                   |
   |--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
   | Environment label  | Select the source environment you want to monitor with the knowledge graph.                                                                                   |
   | Environments       | Deselect the environments you want to exclude from the knowledge graph.                                                                                       |
   | Cloud region label | Optional. If you have selected a different environment label, choose `cluster` as the cloud region label. You can select a different site label, as required. |
   | Cloud regions      | Deselect the regions you want to exclude from the knowledge graph.                                                                                            |
5. If you want to add additional filters, complete the following steps:
   
   1. Click **+ Add filter**.
   2. Populate the fields with filter values and an operator.
      
      You can add multiple filters.
      
      You must use a label that exists in the all the required metrics. Refer to [Troubleshooting](/docs/grafana-cloud/knowledge-graph/get-started/troubleshooting/) for a list of metrics.
6. To specify which frameworks to include in your dataset, toggle the **Advanced options** switch and select or deselect one or more software development frameworks.
   
   By default, the knowledge graph detects new frameworks. You can exclude them from your datasets.
7. Optionally, add more environments.
8. Click **Save settings**.
