Assume I am on a Mac and I have a ~/.aws/config file:
[profile cicd]
region = us-west-2
output = json
[profile prod]
region = us-west-2
output = json
And also a ~/.aws/credentials file:
[cicd]
aws_access_key_id = 12345
aws_secret_access_key = 12345
[prod]
aws_access_key_id = 12345
aws_secret_access_key = 12345
If I run:
aws configure list
I get:
Name Value Type Location
---- ----- ---- --------
profile <not set> None None
access_key <not set> None None
secret_key <not set> None None
region <not set> None None
What have I done wrong?
Also, the company I work for has multiple AWS accounts. The cicd profile runs in one AWS account, and the prod runs in a different AWS account. A I supposed to record that fact in the AWS config files?
aws configure list just lists the current AWS credentials that you are using. It doesn't list all the available credentials you have configured on your system. The name of the command is really misleading.
It is currently showing that you have no credentials configured, because you haven't done anything to specify that you want to use one of those profiles in your config/credential files.
If you did something to select a profile, like:
export AWS_PROFILE=cicd
Then you would see some details about that particular profile when you run aws configure list.
