Description from store
CloudConnector(D) is a Chrome extension designed to streamline the generation and management of AWS access keys, ensuring the highest levels of security for AWS Single Sign-On (SSO) configurations with external Identity Providers (IDPs).
Purpose:
If your organization uses multiple AWS accounts and has configured AWS SSO for centralized authentication, while integrating an external identity provider (IdP), such as Azure AD or Okta, AWS does not directly provide support for generating access keys for the authenticated user. This is where 'CloudConnector(D)' comes in, securely addressing this limitation by generating tokens, which are then used with the 'awsssod' npm package to configure and manage AWS profiles securely.
Setup Process:
1. Install the 'awsssod' npm package using the following command:
- npm install awsssod
2. Obtain the token generated by CloudConnector(D) and pass it to the awsssod package for further processing:
- Run "npx awsssod help" to understand the functionality and usage patterns of the package.
- Run "npx awsssod configure" to configure AWS profiles.
- Use "npx awsssod ls" to list the configured profiles.
3. Once the profile is configured, you can easily perform AWS operations via the AWS CLI as follows,
- "aws s3 ls --profile <profile_name>"
4. For Git operations with AWS CodeCommit, install the git-remote-codecommit library using,
- "pip install git-remote-codecommit"
5. After installation, execute Git commands such as:
- "git clone codecommit://<profile_name>@<repo_name> <local_folder>"
With CloudConnector(D) along with awsssod, managing your AWS accessKeys becomes easier and more secure for developers to maintain and use.
