Without AWS expertise, you face vulnerabilities, technical debt, and market delays while competitors race ahead.

- Auto-completion for AWS Service Principals: Provides intelligent auto-completion suggestions for AWS Service Principals when defining IAM policies or roles.
- Context-aware Suggestions: The extension intelligently detects when you're working with IAM policies or roles and only suggests Service Principal completions in relevant contexts.
- Supports Multiple Languages: Supports auto-completion for Service Principals in JSON, YAML, Terraform, and AWS CDK (TypeScript, and Python).
- Install the "AWS IAM Service Principal Snippets" extension in VS Code.
- Open or create a new file (
.json
,.yml
,.tf
,.ts
, or.py
) where you're defining IAM policies or roles. - When you reach a point where you need to specify a Service Principal (e.g.,
Principal
key in JSON/YAML policies,assumed_by
parameter in Python roles, etc.), start typing the name of the AWS service. - The extension will provide auto-completion suggestions for matching AWS Service Principals.
- Select the desired Service Principal to insert it into your code.
Example of auto-completion in action:
