About:
This tool facilitates secure AWS CLI access by integrating with Okta's federated single sign-on (SSO). It automates the authentication flow, retrieving temporary AWS credentials via SAML or OIDC. This eliminates the need for manual credential management and enhances security by leveraging centralized identity governance.
Key Features:
  • Automated SAML/OIDC authentication flow
  • Supports AWS IAM Identity Center (SSO) and classic IAM roles
  • Generates and refreshes temporary AWS access credentials
  • Configurable profile management for multiple accounts
Use Cases:
  • Managing AWS resources for developers using corporate Okta SSO
  • Automating AWS scripts in CI/CD environments with federated auth
  • Switching quickly between multiple AWS accounts linked to Okta
Alternatives:
  • aws-sso-util – Focuses on simplifying AWS SSO configuration and login, whereas okta-aws-cli specifically bridges Okta identity to AWS.
  • okta-awscli – An older Python-based alternative; okta-aws-cli is the official Go-based successor maintained by Okta.
