  "github_readme_excerpt": "# Gimme AWS Creds\n\n[![][license img]][license]\n[![][cicd img]][cicd]\n\n`gimme-aws-creds` is a CLI that uses an [Okta](https://www.okta.com/) IdP via SAML to acquire short-lived cloud credentials. It supports:\n\n- **AWS** - temporary credentials via AWS STS `AssumeRoleWithSAML`.\n- **Alibaba Cloud** - temporary RAM credentials via Alibaba Cloud STS `AssumeRoleWithSAML`, using the same Okta authentication flow. See [Alibaba Cloud](#alibaba-cloud).\n\nAll you need is your Okta username, password, org URL, and an MFA factor (if MFA is enabled). gimme-aws-creds prompts you to pick the Okta application and role, or you can pre-configure them per profile.\n\nOkta does offer an [OSS Java CLI](https://github.com/oktadeveloper/okta-aws-cli-assume-role) for the same purpose, but it requires more configuration than the average Okta user has and doesn\u0027t scale well across multiple Okta apps. gimme-aws-creds is designed to be friendlier for everyday use.\n\n## Disclaimer\nOkta is a registered trademark of Okta, Inc. and this tool has no affiliation with or sponsorship by Okta, Inc.\n\n## Table of Contents\n\n- [Gimme AWS Creds](#gimme-aws-creds)\n  - [Disclaimer](#disclaimer)\n  - [Table of Contents](#table-of-contents)\n  - [Quick Start](#quick-start)\n  - [Prerequisites](#prerequisites)\n  - [Installation](#installation)\n    - [Recommended](#recommended)\n    - [Other Installation Methods](#other-installation-methods)\n  - [Command Auto Completion](#command-auto-completion)\n  - [Okta Setup](#okta-setup)\n    - [Using gimme-aws-creds with Okta Identity Engine](#using-gimme-aws-creds-with-okta-identity-engine)\n      - [Okta Identity Engine and Device Authorization Flow](#okta-identity-engine-and-device-authorization-flow)\n    - [Forcing the use of the Okta Classic login flow](#forcing-the-use-of-the-okta-classic-login-flow)\n    - [MFA Security Keys Support](#mfa-security-keys-support)\n  - [Configuration](#configuration)\n    - [Configuration File Format](#configuration-file-format)\n    - [Configuration ",
