AWS enables console sign-in credentials for CLI and SDK
🔐 AWS now permits developers to use their existing AWS Management Console sign-in credentials for programmatic access via the AWS CLI, AWS Tools for PowerShell, and AWS SDKs after a brief browser-based authentication flow. The aws login command in AWS CLI v2.32.0 and later obtains automatically rotated, short-lived credentials to reduce reliance on long-term access keys. This capability is available in all commercial AWS regions and aims to streamline local development setup while improving security posture.
