# Create an AWS Glue File Federation Data Stream

Start the flow of data by creating a data stream for AWS Glue Data Catalog. The data stream creates a data lake object (DLO) in Data 360 that you can map to the Customer 360 Data Model to use across Data 360.

| User Permissions Needed |                    |
| ----------------------- | ------------------ |
| To create a connection: | Data 360 Architect |

Before you begin:

- Make sure that the required AWS Glue Data Catalog connection is set up.

1.  In Data Cloud, on the Data Streams tab, click **New**.

2.  Under Other Sources, select the AWS Glue Data Catalog connection source, and click **Next**.

3.  From the dropdown menus, select the connection and database to use.

4.  Under **Schemas**, select the schema to use.

5.  From the **Available Objects**, select the objects you want to include.

6.  Click **Next**.

**note:** You can't choose objects listed under **In Use Objects**.

7.  Enter the object name and object API name. For more information, see [Data Lake Object Naming Standards](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_lake_object_naming.htm&type=5).

8.  Select the category to specify the type of data to ingest. For more information, see [Category](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_category.htm&type=5).
