Image from store AWS Extend Switch Roles

Description from store Switch role history does not remain only five maximum on the AWS Management Console. This extension gives you show all of switch roles from a browse menu by loading your aws configuration. ## Configuration ### Simple Configuration The simplest configuration is for multiple **target roles** when you always intend to show the whole list. **Target roles** can be expressed with a `role_arn` or with both `aws_account_id` and `role_name`. #### Optional parameters * `color` - The RGB hex value (without the prefix '#') for the color of the header bottom border and around the current profile. * `region` - Changing the region whenever switching the role if this parameter is specified. * `image` - The uri of an image to use on top of any color attribute supplied. The color and image are not mutually exclusive. ``` [profile marketingadmin] role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/marketingadmin color = ffaaee [anotheraccount] aws_account_id = 987654321987 role_name = anotherrole region=ap-northeast-1 ``` ### Complex Configuration More complex configurations involve multiple AWS accounts and/or organizations. - A profile that has only `aws_account_id` (without a `role_name`) is defined as **base account**. - If your account is aliased, you specify `aws_account_alias` in **base account**. - A **target role** is associated with a **base account** by the **target role** specifying a `source_profile`. - As above, **target roles** can be expressed with a `role_arn` or with both `aws_account_id` and `role_name` and can optionally pass the optional parameters. - If `target_role_name` is set in **base account**, the value is provided as the default role name for each **target roles**. ``` [organization1] aws_account_id = your-account-alias [Org1-Account1-Role1] role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/Role1 source_profile = organization1 [Org1-Account1-Role2] aws_account_id = 123456789012 role_name = Role2 source_profile = organization1 [Org1-Account2-Role1] aws_account_id = 210987654321 role_name = Role1 source_profile = organization1 [baseaccount2] aws_account_id = 000000000000 [Base2-Role1] role_arn = arn:aws:iam::234567890123:role/Role1 source_profile = baseaccount2 [AnotherRole] role_name = SomeOtherRole aws_account_id = account-3-alias ``` If you sign-in a base account, target roles of the other base accounts are excluded.

(2022-11-28) Sneh Gada: This is just simple, so use-full and amazing
(2022-07-06) Bryan Dady: Top 5 most helpful browser extensions. Here is the format/syntax that works for me: [Account_Alias] aws_account_id = ############ role_name = admin region = us-east-2 ...
(2022-06-16) Paul Benoit: The config saves and says it is valid, but the plugin shows zero accounts in the Chrome taskbar.
(2022-02-07) Rafał Dzwonek: Very useful tool. Would be great if it had an option to select roles with arrows when searching.
(2021-11-14) Joshua Friend: Thank you!
(2020-10-26) Gert van den Berg: No 5 account limit like the AWS UI. Needs quite a bit of tweaking on the config currently (see issue 171 on Github) to get my config to work... (my config is based on the settings to get the CLI MFA to work for everything other than the default profile)
(2020-10-01) Martyn Russell: Love it. Makes life so much easier. Surprised AWS doesn't have this already.
(2020-09-28) Collin Erickson: Good work updating due to aws update!
(2020-09-25) Leyton Reed: Deserves waaay more love than it gets :D
(2020-09-25) Rurui Ye: The plugin is great, but aws just change their nav bar style, and the plugin doesn't work anymore.
(2020-09-25) Peter Wiseman: Wonderful extension. Makes working with multiple accounts and multiple roles usable. The developer has been very responsive to address issues when AWS update the UI. And AWS have recognised the value of this extension.
(2020-09-24) Andrew C: Absolutely essential when managing multiple accounts & roles
(2020-09-24) Jinggo Villamor: Hi there. Is this compatible with the latest AWS console UI update?
(2020-09-23) Sheng Tian: Love this. It's broken now as AWS just changed their switch org UI
(2020-09-23) Chris Gibson: Must have extension for AWS users.
(2020-09-23) Kyle Laverty: This is a very well done extension. Simple, to the point and blends easily into the AWS UI.
(2020-09-23) Kratos Adamas: AWSome extension! The latest UI update seems to have broken this. Are there any plans to update this to work with the new update?
(2020-09-23) Brent Harrison: If you use AWS with multiple roles/accounts, you *need* this plugin.
(2020-09-18) Mathieu Marcoux: Giving it 5 star even if it broke today - The extension works beautifully although on sept 18th AWS did an UI update and it's not working anymore. Thanks for checking it out!
(2020-09-18) Tyrone Meijn: This is a must have, no doubt about that. The guy is also superresponsive on Github! 🧡
(2020-09-18) Denis Semenenko: Great extension! Shame to AWS they don't have this out of the box.
(2020-09-18) Tim Schill: A must have plugin for anyone handling more then 5 AWS accounts. Great plugin thank you!
(2020-09-18) Harry Papadopoulos: One of the must have extensions if you work with multiple AWS accounts. Works great and is dead easy to configure.
(2020-09-17) Jared Kauppila: Incredibly useful extension that really simplifies the workflow when working with many AWS accounts.
(2020-09-17) Jonathan Flowers: This is by far the most useful Chrome extension I use in my day-to-day work. It solves a huge problem with the native AWS console experience which (for some reason) only limits you to quick-switch between the last five roles. We have a dozen or more roles at any one time so being able to switch to any of them quickly is extremely helpful.
(2020-09-17) Michael Hart: This plugin is a life-saver when managing many AWS accounts and roles.
(2020-08-25) Eugene Glotov: I expected the roles to be available from the extension bar. The extension provides an interface similar to something AWS already has with some improvements. That's nice, but is not really helpful.
(2020-02-25) Jason Gay: superb - just works!
(2020-01-24) John Paulo Rodriguez: Very Useful! Thank you!
(2019-11-20) Bách Huỳnh Văn: Awesome extension! I love it!
(2019-11-13) Tyler Sustare: Super duper when using
(2019-11-06) Sathurjan: Its very useful extension for AWS Admin !! Really love it - Powerful tool
(2019-11-04) Martin Bachmann: Surely useful, but on a general note, a third-party browser plugin which has full access to your AWS console should make everybody at least a bit nervous. A plugin can modify a page and interact with it as it sees fit. And quite a few times plugins were targeted by hackers - imagine the implications here. (Don't get me wrong, the author is surely doing a great job and will hopefully ensure the plugin access remains firmly in his hands).
(2019-08-25) Robert J: My dude or dudette, you are my hero!
(2019-08-20) Jason Harris: Seriously, the most useful extension I have. By far. It saves me thousands of keystrokes.
(2019-07-25) Justin Rice: SO MUCH TIME SAVED
(2019-07-12) Carlo Mencarelli: Great for segmented AWS orgs. Straightforward and easy to setup.
(2019-06-27) Emre Odabas: Using this over a year and this is by far the most useful addon for an AWS user.
(2019-06-26) 唐守滨: awesome extension tool, found long time.
(2019-06-24) Manuel de Paz: Extensión imprescindible cuando gestiones varias cuentas de AWS. Permite tener más de 10 cuentas en la lista y facilita los assumeRole.
(2019-05-06) Agapito Di Sousa: Esta extensión me ha cambiado la vida no la he probado ni se lo que hace pero descarguenla es muy buena
(2019-01-30) Excellent tool!!! I manage close to 200 AWS accounts, and this tool is perfect!!!
(2018-12-14) John Jones: AWS should just buy this and make it the standard for role switching
(2018-11-15) Asfand Qazi: The perfect extension! Does one job, no ads, and does it really well. Would happily donate if I didn't have to pay a £4 fee with the £5 donation - thanks PayPal.... :(
(2018-10-30) John Heller: Super useful, especially if you have to deal with multiple accounts and related cross-account roles. It's clever enough to show you just the relevant roles. I like being able to set the region too.
(2018-10-15) Murat Tasova: very usefull, thanks. No dont have to remember the all the account names and are able to switch fast,
(2018-10-06) Adrian Amoroso: What AWS should have done from the start. Nice work!
(2018-09-24) cheesejunkfunk: This does everything I need it too, and it saves me a lot of time.
(2018-09-08) Dorance Martinez Cortes: Thanks, is simple to use, only copy paste the credentials file and can change easily between roles.
(2018-06-19) Max Allan: Why have I only just found this plugin? My life is now so much easier. Thank you!!
