AWS sts in stable-1.9?

Hey guys,

I found there is a commit about AWS sts support in dev branch of ansible-core-modules, and that probably will be release in v2. So I am curious is that possible we can have it in v1.9 as well, so I just create a PR for it in stable-1.9.

We are being stuck by AWS sts by using ansible 1.9 for a while. :frowning:

Cheers,

We normally only backport bugfixes to the maintenance branches, not
new features.

But in most cases you can download the newer modules and override the
distributed one by putting it into a 'library' directory adjacent to
your plays or inside a role.

Hey Brian,

Thanks for your reply.

I don’t think that is a new feature, the issue is caused by we did’t put security_token in parameters by call Boto API. And then we will get following error when we using Ansible against AWS temporary security credentials.

`
The security token included in the request is invalid.

`

The error is very confused to me, I was thinking that is problem of Boto.

BTW, If your guys insist that AWS sts can only will support in Ansible v2, what’s the release date of ansible v2?
