> Key: CAMEL-9210
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-9210
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: camel-aws
> Affects Versions: 2.16.0
> Reporter: Ben Parry
> Assignee: onder sezgin
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Future
>
> Original Estimate: 4h
> Remaining Estimate: 4h

> AWS supports instance profiles so users don't need to manage credentials on
> individual instances.
> Please update the AWS connector so that the access key and secret are
> optional, and if not given try to use those provided by an instance profile
> attached to the instance if one exists. Most AWS SDKs support this, so it
> should just be a matter of updating the AWS SDK and making those two
> parameters optional.
> As a bonus, it'd be great for development if it also looked in environment
> variables for the token and secret as well. That way users of the AWS
> connector could choose not to pass the token & secret, but if they exported
> them into their environment they would be picked up. This would allow local
> development on a non-EC2 instance (i.e. an instance without an instance
> profile attached).
> So, the order of resolution would be:
> 1. If key & token are provided to the AWS connector, use them (current
> behaviour).
> 2. If not, try to pull out AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY from
> environment variables, and use those. If not present, expect the AWS SDK to
> look into an instance profile associated with the instance for credentials.
> See https://github.com/aws/aws-cli for an example implementation with
> python/boto. The suggestion above mirrors the approach they take.
