-------------------------------------
Summary: Allow session_token argument when initializing
S3FileSystem
Key: ARROW-9517
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9517
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++, Python
Affects Versions: 0.17.1
Reporter: Matthew Corley
In order to access S3 using temporary credentials (from STS), users must supply
a session token in addition to the usual access key and secret key.
However, currently, the S3FileSystem class only accepts access_key and
secret_key arguments. The only workaround is to provide the session token as
an environment variable, but this not ideal for a variety of reasons.
This is a request to allow an optional session_token argument when initializing
the S3FileSystem.
