aws: Configure the AWS Command-line using SSO.
$ aws configure sso
try on your machine
The command "aws configure sso" is used to configure AWS Single Sign-On (SSO) settings for the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI).
SSO is a service provided by AWS that allows users to sign in to multiple AWS accounts and business applications using their existing corporate credentials. It simplifies access management and reduces the need for multiple usernames and passwords.
When you run the "aws configure sso" command, it will prompt you to enter the following information:
- AWS SSO start URL: The URL provided by your organization that takes you to the sign-in portal for AWS SSO.
- SSO region: The AWS region where your SSO portal is located.
- SSO account ID: The AWS account ID associated with the AWS SSO configuration.
- SSO role name: The name of the AWS SSO role that you want to use for accessing AWS services and resources.
Once you provide this information, the AWS CLI will configure the SSO settings, and you will be able to use the SSO credentials to access your AWS resources through the CLI.
