Highlights

AWS Credentials Variables task for Bamboo

Use the AWS Credentials Variables task in Bamboo to provide managed temporary AWS security credentials for other tools by injecting them into AWS unaware tasks like the Bamboo Script task.

AWS Credentials Variables task and Tasks for AWS

The AWS Credentials Variables task complements the dedicated AWS build and deployment tasks offered by Tasks for AWS by providing managed temporary AWS security credentials as Bamboo variables for tools that are not directly integrated with Identity Federation for AWS, but accept AWS credentials via the command line or environment variables, for example the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI).

Usage of the AWS Credentials Variables task is free for Tasks for AWS licensees, see the Licensing & Purchasing FAQ for details.

Compatibility with JIRA Data Center

Identity Federation for AWS is now tested for compatibility with the clustering and high-availability capabilities of JIRA Data Center.
