2 years agoAWS Plugin & source_profile incompatibility?
Hi,
it is not clear to me how 1password should be configured for multi-profile management in case of source profiles,
in particular in the documentation https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli...

2 years agoHi @Enomis , the AWS shell plugin is meant to replace the AWS CLI as much as possible. As far as I know, all use cases should be covered except for the one where you have multiple sets of credentials you need to switch between. From our research, most AWS users will just have 1 set of credentials and will need to switch between multiple profiles.
In the context of the shell plugin, the source_profile
field is to be specified in the .aws/config
when you want to chain profiles. So basically start with the role/permissions of one profile and then branch into other roles starting from that. There will only be 1 set of master credentials which will be securely stored in 1Password.
Does this answer your question?
Best,
Andi
