CDI targets are supported only on Flows that have an EFA VPC interface with a CDI or JPEG XS Source. You can configure an AWS MediaConnect "Flow" that has already been set up in your MediaConnect account to be used in the CDI Target in ZEN Master.
:::hint{type="info"}
In order to use this feature, you must first link ZEN Master to an AWS account, see [Linking an AWS Account](docId\:erygXkCUfmmZ8BaKidJz4)
