Hello, big fans over here at AWS.
We recently launched
aws login, which is three things:1)A set of APIs doing OAuthy flows to deliver temporary AWS credentials, for an active browser-based session to the AWS CLI/AWS SDKs. The different flows are exposed as two different public clients.
2)A client that does this,
aws loginwith the AWS CLI.3)Configuration of credentials from
aws loginin .aws/config, and SDK support with new credential providers for said credential type.This is pretty neat for a lot of customers because it gives a path to get credentials to the AWS CLI, without creating long-lived akids at any point, or setting up IAM identity center.
I think it would be pretty neat for granted to support delivery of the initial credential used to assume other roles via
aws login.Support for the credentials as listed in a profile would be as simple as upgrading to the latest AWS GO SDK. Building a user experience that knows about going for new creds with said profile has expired might be a bit of wrenching.
There's been some confusion about what our new capability is, and we think for some customers it's a "better together" story with granted, and not an either-or.
We're available to talk if it's useful!
