role
Parameters
value
Specifies a role to assume when connecting to AWS. When assuming a role, Vault uses temporary STS credentials to authenticate. An initial session with the proper trust relationship must exist for Vault to be able to assume this role. The role can be in a different account. The value is mutable as long as the new role targets the same AWS account ID. If not, the BE will return an error. It is possible to provide both an access key pair and a role to assume.
