It wraps aws-sso-lib to provide utilities for configuring your .aws/config file, logging in and out, integrating with the AWS SDK, looking up account and role identifiers, and working with CloudFormation. The package is designed as a temporary bridge until AWS improves Identity Center's user experience.\n\nThe tool is typically installed via pipx to keep it isolated, then used as a CLI for common Identity Center tasks. Developers can also import aws-sso-lib directly in Python code to create boto3 sessions for specific accounts and roles programmatically. The package depends on standard AWS tooling (boto3), configuration parsing (pyyaml, jsonschema), and HTTP utilities (requests), making it a lightweight addition to an AWS-focused workflow.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you use AWS IAM Identity Center and want to reduce friction in credential management and configuration. The package is stable (Apache-2.0, no known vulnerabilities), has low install friction, and solves a real operational problem. The 803-day release gap is a minor concern given recent repository activity, but check whether your Identity Center setup matches the utilities' scope before committing."},"id":"aws-sso-util","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-sso-util","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-sso-util.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aws-sso-util/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-06-02","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aws-sso-util","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Utilities to make AWS SSO easier"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":88504,"position":13723,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"4.33.0"}
