Hello,
The variable
--app-role-arn
provides the feature of assuming an AWS role during runtime. This allows the service to access services from a different account where it is running. Moreover, AWS recommends using this funcionality along with what they callexternal id
. This is a random string or number the client must provide to assume an specific role. It acts like a password.https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_create_for-user_externalid.html
This PR implements this functionality. I've added a new environment variable called
AWS_EXTERNAL_ID
, a new CLI option--aws-external-id
and a new YAML parameter:aws.external-id
.If the value is not provided, it will use the default value in a Go string (an empty string
""
), so it should work always.Regards,
