AWS SAML Keys: Generate AWS Access Keys from SAML Login
AWS SAML Keys is a Chrome add-on developed by Michael McIntyre (WTFender) that allows users to generate AWS access keys from a SAML login to the AWS console. This add-on provides just-in-time (JIT) access key provisioning for single sign-on (SSO) users, making it easier to manage access keys and switch between roles or accounts.
With AWS SAML Keys, users can generate access keys that are placed in a named AWS CLI profile. This add-on supports all SAML identity providers, ensuring compatibility with various SSO setups.
This tool is particularly useful for reducing access key management, as it eliminates the need to manually generate and manage access keys for SSO users. It also allows users to quickly switch access keys across different roles or accounts, making it convenient for users who need to work with multiple AWS resources.
Overall, AWS SAML Keys is a valuable add-on for SSO users who require AWS access keys. It simplifies the process of generating and managing access keys, enhancing the efficiency and security of AWS console access.
