    credential_provider: assume_role
    assume_role_authentication_id: ${auth_id}
  • assume_role_authentication_id: NUMBER

    The authentication ID for assume role when using credential_provider: assume_role. This corresponds to the Amazon S3 Import Integration v2 configuration.

    How to get authentication_id is written in Reusing the existing Authentication.
