Configuration

Configuration is supported via the AWS credentials and config files.

By default all available profiles are show in the profile selection.

Here are some examples:

Standard Profile

~/.aws/credentials
[profile-name]
aws_access_key_id = id
aws_secret_access_key = secret

MFA Profile

~/.aws/credentials
[profile-name]
aws_access_key_id = id
aws_secret_access_key = secret

~/.aws/config
[profile mfa-profile]
mfa_serial = arn:aws:iam::<aws_account_arn>:mfa/<username>
source_profile = profile-name

Assume Role in another Account

~/.aws/credentials
[profile-name]
aws_access_key_id = id
aws_secret_access_key = secret

~/.aws/config
[profile assumed-role]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::<aws_target_account_arn>:role/<RoleName>
source_profile = profile-name

Assume Role with MFA

~/.aws/credentials
[profile-name]
aws_access_key_id = id
aws_secret_access_key = secret

~/.aws/config
[profile mfa-assumed-role]
mfa_serial = arn:aws:iam::<aws_account_arn>:mfa/<username>
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::<aws_target_account_arn>:role/<RoleName>
source_profile = profile-name

Single Sign On

Single sign-on is not yet redirecting to the sign on page; so to begin the journey, you need to use aws cli to single sign on.

aws sso login --profile sso-admin

~/.aws/config
[profile sso-admin]
sso_start_url = https://sso.awsapps.com/start
sso_region = eu-west-1
sso_account_id = 1123456789
sso_role_name = AWSAdministratorAccess
region = us-east-1
output = json

Local

Setup a local dynamoDB agent on a specified port.

~/.aws/config
[profile local]
region = local
output = json
endpoint=http://localhost:8000
