It wraps the cloud provider credential discovery process\u2014automatically pulling AWS credentials from the default session, or GCP and Azure credentials from their respective environment configurations\u2014and exposes them as tokens suitable for downstream authentication systems like Akeyless.\n\nThe package is designed to integrate into CI/CD pipelines and application startup routines where you need to authenticate to a secrets management system using your cloud provider's native identity. It depends only on urllib3 and requests at runtime, with optional extras (boto3, google-auth, azure-identity) for each cloud provider, so you can keep dependencies minimal if targeting a single cloud.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are integrating with Akeyless or another secrets system that accepts cloud identity tokens and you run workloads on AWS, GCP, or Azure. The low dependency footprint and automatic credential discovery make it a straightforward fit for cloud-native authentication. Not relevant if you are not using Akeyless or do not need cloud identity tokens."},"id":"akeyless-cloud-id","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/akeyless-cloud-id","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/akeyless-cloud-id.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/akeyless-cloud-id/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-02-16","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"akeyless-cloud-id","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"AKEYLESS Cloud ID Retriever"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2900731,"position":2829,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.1"}
