Calling AWS Services from Renovate

When one of Renovate's inbuilt datasources interacts with AWS services, Renovate uses the AWS SDK for JavaScript. This allows you to provide credentials and configuration to it, as if you were interacting with other tools, like the aws CLI.

For example:

• Set the region via the AWS_REGION environment variable or your ~/.aws/config file
• Provide credentials via the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables or your ~/.aws/credentials file
• Select the profile to use via AWS_PROFILE environment variable

Tip

Read the AWS Developer Guide - Configuring the SDK for JavaScript for more information on these configuration options.
