IAM Access Credentials

The iam_access_credentials GitHub action will configure the workflow environment with the necessary IAM access credentials as requested (via environment variables).

Usage

- uses: clowdhaus/aws-github-actions/iam_access_credentials@main
  with:
    # AWS Region to send the request to. If defined, this environment variable overrides
    # the value for the profile setting region
    # Required: true
    aws-region: ''

    # AWS access key associated with an IAM user or role
    # Required: true
    aws-access-key-id: ''

    # Specifies the secret key associated with the access key
    # Required: true
    aws-secret-access-key: ''

    # Specifies the session token value that is required if you are using temporary
    # security credentials that you retrieved directly from AWS STS operations
    # Required: true
    aws-session-token: ''

    # Determine if AWS account ID should be hidden from stdout as a secret value
    # Default: 'true'
    mask-aws-account-id: ''

    # Determine if role should be assumed to generate credentials
    # Default: 'false'
    assume-role: ''

    # The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role to assume
    # Required: when `assume-role` == `true`
    role-arn: ''

    # An identifier for the assumed role session
    # Default: 'github-action-iam-access'
    role-session-name: ''

    # The duration, in seconds, of the role session
    # Default: '900'

Scenarios

Standard setup of access credentials from GitHub secrets

- uses: clowdhaus/aws-github-actions/iam_access_credentials@main
  with:
    aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
    aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
    aws-region: us-east-1

Use credentials from assumed IAM role

- uses: clowdhaus/aws-github-actions/s3_sync@main
  with:
    aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
    aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
    aws-region: us-east-1
    assume-role: true
    role-arn: arn:aws:iam::123425678910:role/cross-account

Use credentials from assumed IAM role with external ID

- uses: clowdhaus/aws-github-actions/s3_sync@main
  with:
    aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
    aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
    aws-region: us-east-1
    assume-role: true
    role-arn: arn:aws:iam::123425678910:role/cross-account
    external-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ASSUMED_ROLE_EXTERNAL_ID }}
