Hello,
Quick question, is it possible to use AWS nodes on N8N using IAM roles instead of passing in access key and secert keys ?
In my Org, creating IAM access key and secert key is prohibited, instead I can do a assume role to an instance where the N8N is running and access the resources. I would like to know how can I use the AWS nodes on N8N by passing in the assume role name instead of keys ?
Hey @Sathya_Narayanan,
I am not that clued up when it comes to AWS options but when you assume a role what are you using to authenticate with? At the moment the node only supports access key and secret key but this could be a feature request if it is something the AWS API supports.
@Jon this is the link to AWS assume role assume-role — AWS CLI 1.27.135 Command Reference
Any update on this ? has any one used the session token to access AWS resources with out giving the access/secret key
Hey @Sathya_Narayanan,
We still only support the access / secret key feature, Does the API support using a session token?
Hi! Is there any update on this? Using AWS access keys is not a best practice anymore and exposes major security concerns. Not every org nowadays still allows using access keys. Can we add support for using IAM roles?
This PR should support the feature requested. Please upvote on the PR
