i trying embed access , secret key along aws cli. e.g.
aws ec2 describe-instances --aws-access-key <access_key> --aws-secret-key <secret_key> also tried -o , -w options access , secret key respectively. says : unknown option aws-access-key , aws-secret-key
you can provide keys on command line via envars:
aws_access_key_id=abcd aws_secret_access_key=ef1234 aws ec2 describe-instances see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/topic/config-vars.html#credentials
edit: @wisbucky noted leave secrets in command history. 1 way around in bash @ least think prepend command blank space , command should not propagate bash history.
