About:
OktaAwscli is a command-line utility that integrates AWS CLI with Okta for secure authentication. It automates the process of obtaining temporary AWS credentials via SAML or OIDC, eliminating the need for manual token management. This tool streamlines access to AWS resources for users authenticated through Okta's identity platform.
Key Features:
  • Automated SAML/OIDC authentication flow
  • Seamless AWS credential management and caching
  • Multi-account and role selection support
  • Integration with standard AWS CLI configuration
Use Cases:
  • Developers accessing AWS resources through corporate Okta SSO
  • DevOps engineers managing multiple AWS accounts via Okta
  • CI/CD pipelines requiring automated Okta-authenticated AWS access
Alternatives:
  • aws-saml – Similar SAML-based AWS authentication, but okta-awscli is Okta-specific
  • okta-aws-cli – Official Okta AWS CLI tool, alternative implementation with similar functionality
