Terraform Module to provision a basic IAM user suitable for humans. It will establish a login profile and associate the user with IAM groups.
We do not recommend creating IAM users for any other purpose. For external systems (e.g. CI/CD) check out our terraform-aws-iam-system-user
module.
This project is part of our comprehensive "SweetOps" approach towards DevOps.
It's 100% Open Source and licensed under the APACHE2.
First, make sure all users register with keybase.io to faciliate public key encryption (PKE). Then use their keybase username to automatically encrypt their AWS secret. It's that easy!
module "jack" {
source = "git::https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-iam-user.git?ref=master"
name = "jack"
pgp_key = "keybase:jack"
groups = ["admins"]
}
NOTE: We recommend using email addresses for IAM user accounts.
module "jill" {
source = "git::https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-iam-user.git?ref=master"
name = "jill"
pgp_key = "keybase:jill"
groups = ["engineering"]
}
