Description

As a NiFi user, I want to use AWS processors, e.g. PutS3Object processor, with temporary credentials to allow connecting to secure AWS environments that make use of the AWS Security Token Service. 

 

The NiFi AWSCredentialsProviderControllerService is giving an option to add the required fields for using temporary credentials. While access key id and secret access key properties can be configured, the property "session token" is not available. The session token property must be provided when temporary credentials are used. If the session token is not presented, an error will be thrown: "The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records. (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 403; Error Code: InvalidAccessKeyId"
