AWS Credentials Sources

You currently have two the following options to provide provide AWS Security Credentials:

Identity Federation for AWS

Tip
titleFederated Amazon Web Services access

This is the recommended approach to share and manage AWS credentials:

  • It provides benefits like easy credentials sharing and reuse, fine grained access control for AWS resources, strong encryption and more (see AWS Security Credentials Variations for details).

Image RemovedRefer to AWS Connector Management for details.

  • (info) this option requires at least one AWS Connector to be configured with System Scope to allow usage from Bamboo builds, where no user session is available
  • a connector yields a set of temporary credentials on task execution (optionally limiting the IAM permissions)
  • you can configure multiple connectors to provide credentials with different IAM permissions tailored for specific use cases

IAM Role for EC2 (Agent)

Image RemovedYou can use IAM Roles for Amazon EC2 to optionally skip credentials configuration all together: if an agent happens to run on an EC2 instance started with an instance profile (IAM role), the tasks can be configured to facilitate those credentials. Of course, the underlying IAM role needs to have a sufficient policy attached to grant the the required permissions for the task at hand.

This feature requires the Amazon EC2 instance running the agent to be started with an EC2 instance profile. There are three different scenarios:

  • local agents - requires the hosting Bamboo server itself to run on EC2
  • remote/elastic agents - requires the remote agent to run on EC2
    • elastic agents - requires the elastic agent to run on EC2(warning) Elastic Bamboo only supports configuring elastic images with an instance profile as of Bamboo 5.6.
