# AWS SSO

Connects Kotharo to AWS SSO for cloud sign-in. [All adapters](https://kotharo.com/docs/adapters/)

## What you need

- The `aws` command, from [AWS CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html).

## Connect

`/kotharo:setup` finds AWS SSO and takes you through these steps. To connect it by hand:

Install AWS CLI. [Its install page](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html) covers other systems.

macOS:

```
curl -fsSL https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/install.sh | bash
```

Windows, in Git Bash:

```
powershell -c "irm https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/install.ps1 | iex"
```

Linux:

```
curl -fsSL https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/install.sh | bash
```

## Sign in

Run aws configure sso once to set up a profile, then aws sso login --profile `<profile>`. On a machine with no browser, add --use-device-code.

To check you are signed in, run `aws sts get-caller-identity`.
