Enhance Your AWS Management Console Experience with the Switch Role History Chrome Extension

Are you tired of the limitations imposed by the AWS Management Console when it comes to switch role history? Look no further! With the Switch Role History Chrome extension, you can now browse and access all of your switch roles conveniently from a single menu, simply by loading your AWS configuration.

Configuration Made Simple

Setting up the Switch Role History extension is a breeze. Whether you need to manage multiple target roles or simply want to view the entire list, the extension has got you covered. You can define your target roles using either the `role_arn` or the `aws_account_id` and `role_name` combination.

The extension also offers optional parameters to further customize your experience. You can choose the color of the header bottom border and the area around the current profile using the `color` parameter. If you frequently switch regions, you can specify the `region` parameter to automatically change the region whenever you switch roles. Additionally, you can even set a custom image as the header using the `image` parameter.

[profile marketingadmin]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/marketingadmin
color = ffaaee

[anotheraccount]
aws_account_id = 987654321987
role_name = anotherrole
region = ap-northeast-1

Handle Complex Configurations with Ease

If you have multiple AWS accounts or organizations, the Switch Role History extension can handle even the most complex configurations. You can define a **base account** using only the `aws_account_id` parameter. If your account is aliased, you can specify the `aws_account_alias` in the **base account** configuration.

Associating a **target role** with a **base account** is simple. Just specify the `source_profile` in the **target role** configuration. Similar to the simple configuration, you can use either the `role_arn` or the `aws_account_id` and `role_name` combination for your **target roles**.

Here's an example of a more complex configuration:

[organization1]
aws_account_id = your-account-alias

[Org1-Account1-Role1]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/Role1
source_profile = organization1

[Org1-Account1-Role2]
aws_account_id = 123456789012
role_name = Role2
source_profile = organization1

[Org1-Account2-Role1]
aws_account_id = 210987654321
role_name = Role1
source_profile = organization1

[baseaccount2]
aws_account_id = 000000000000

[Base2-Role1]
role_arn = arn:aws:iam::234567890123:role/Role1
source_profile = baseaccount2

[AnotherRole]
role_name = SomeOtherRole
aws_account_id = account-3-alias

Please note that when signing into a base account, the target roles of other base accounts will be excluded.

This is just simple, so use-full and amazing

Bryan Dady

Top 5 most helpful browser extensions. Here is the format/syntax that works for me: [Account_Alias] aws_account_id = ############ role_name = admin region = us-east-2 ...

Paul Benoit

The config saves and says it is valid, but the plugin shows zero accounts in the Chrome taskbar.

Rafał Dzwonek

Very useful tool. Would be great if it had an option to select roles with arrows when searching.

Gert van den Berg

No 5 account limit like the AWS UI. Needs quite a bit of tweaking on the config currently (see issue 171 on Github) to get my config to work... (my config is based on the settings to get the CLI MFA to work for everything other than the default profile)

Martyn Russell

Love it. Makes life so much easier. Surprised AWS doesn't have this already.

Leyton Reed

Deserves waaay more love than it gets :D

Rurui Ye

The plugin is great, but aws just change their nav bar style, and the plugin doesn't work anymore.

Peter Wiseman

Wonderful extension. Makes working with multiple accounts and multiple roles usable. The developer has been very responsive to address issues when AWS update the UI. And AWS have recognised the value of this extension.

Andrew C

Absolutely essential when managing multiple accounts & roles
