AWS CLI
Multiple Profiles
Default Profile
Example of configuring AWS CLI before use:
$ aws configure AWS Access Key ID [None]: AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
Default region name [None]: us-east-1
Default output format [None]: json
Creating Multiple Profiles
If you use the command shown in the previous section, the result is a single profile named default. You can create additional configurations that you can refer to with a name by specifying the --profile option and assigning a name. The following example creates a profile named produser. You can specify credentials from a completely different account and region than the other profiles.
$ aws configure --profile produser
AWS Access Key ID [None]: AKIAI44QH8DHBEXAMPLE
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: je7MtGbClwBF/2Zp9Utk/h3yCo8nvbEXAMPLEKEY
Default region name [None]: us-east-1
Default output format [None]: text
Then, when you run a command, you can omit the --profile option and use the credentials and settings stored in the <default> profile.
$ aws s3 ls
Or you can specify a --profile <profilename> and use the credentials and settings stored under that name.
$ aws s3 ls --profile produser
To update any of your settings, simply run aws configure again (with or without the --profile parameter, depending on which profile you want to update) and enter new values as appropriate.
