"github_readme_excerpt": "# aws-sso-util\n## Making life with AWS IAM Identity Center (formerly AWS SSO) a little easier\n\n[IAM Identity Center](https://aws.amazon.com/single-sign-on/) (formerly AWS SSO) has some rough edges, and `aws-sso-util` is here to smooth them out, hopefully temporarily until AWS makes it better.\n\nYou can read a primer on IAM Identity Center [here](docs/primer.md).\nNote that because it was originally called AWS SSO, field names in configuration and APIs will continue to have \"SSO\" in them, rather than Identity Center.\n\n`aws-sso-util` contains utilities for the following:\n* Configuring `.aws/config`\n* Logging in/out\n* AWS SDK support\n* Looking up identifiers\n* CloudFormation\n\n`aws-sso-util` supersedes `aws-sso-credential-process`, which is still available in its original form [here](https://github.com/benkehoe/aws-sso-credential-process).\nRead the updated docs for `aws-sso-util credential-process` [here](docs/credential-process.md).\n\n## Programmatic interaction with Identity Center\n\n`aws-sso-util` provides command-line utilities. The underlying Python library for Identity Center authentication is [`aws-sso-lib`](lib/README.md), which has useful functions like interactive login, creating a boto3 session for specific a account and role, and the programmatic versions of the `lookup` functions in `aws-sso-util`. See the documentation [here](lib/README.md).\n\n## Quickstart\n\n0. It\u0027s a good idea to [install the AWS CLI v2](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-cliv2.html) (which has Identity Center support).\n\n1. I recommend you install [`pipx`](https://pipxproject.github.io/pipx/), which installs the tool in an isolated virtualenv while linking the script you need.\n\nMac [and Linux](https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux):\n```bash\nbrew install pipx\npipx ensurepath\n```\n\nOther:\n```bash\npython3 -m pip install --user pipx\npython3 -m pipx ensurepath\n```\n\n2. Install\n```bash\npipx install aws-sso-util\n```\n\n3. Learn\n```bash\naws-sso-util --help\n```\n\n4. Autocomplete\n\n`aws",
