EKSAuthClient Operations

Command
Summary
AssumeRoleForPodIdentityCommand

The Amazon EKS Auth API and the AssumeRoleForPodIdentity action are only used by the EKS Pod Identity Agent.

We recommend that applications use the Amazon Web Services SDKs to connect to Amazon Web Services services; if credentials from an EKS Pod Identity association are available in the pod, the latest versions of the SDKs use them automatically.

EKSAuthClient Configuration

Parameter

maxAttempts
Optional
number | Provider<number>

profile
Optional
string
Setting a client profile is similar to setting a value for the AWS_PROFILE environment variable. Setting a profile on a client in code only affects the single client instance, unlike AWS_PROFILE.When set, and only for environments where an AWS configuration file exists, fields configurable by this file will be retrieved from the specified profile within that file. Conflicting code configuration and environment variables will still have higher priority.For client credential resolution that involves checking the AWS configuration file, the client's profile (this value) will be used unless a different profile is set in the credential provider options.
region
Optional
string | Provider<string>
The AWS region to which this client will send requests
requestHandler
Optional
__HttpHandlerUserInput
The HTTP handler to use or its constructor options. Fetch in browser and Https in Nodejs.
