Use the Python SDK to generate a token in Aurora DSQL

Once your cluster is ACTIVE, you can generate an authentication token.

There are two ways to generate the token

  • If you are connecting as admin user, you use the generate_db_connect_admin_auth_token

  • If you are connecting with a custom database role, you use the generate_connect_auth_token

The following example uses the following attributes to generate an authentication token for the admin role.

  • your_cluster_endpoint – endpoint of the cluster. Follows the format your_cluster_identifier.dsql.AWS_REGION.on.aws

  • region – The AWS Region, such as us-east-2 or us-east-1

def generate_token(your_cluster_endpoint, region): client = boto3.client("dsql", region_name=region) # use `generate_db_connect_auth_token` if you are _not_ connecting as admin instead. token = client.generate_db_connect_admin_auth_token(your_cluster_endpoint, region) print(token) return token
