Automatically reassume roles (ZSH)

By default Granted will assume a given role for 1hr. This can be altered by passing the --duration flag, or by specifying a duration_seconds prop in your config file. This means that after a given hour of activity, you will need to re-run assume to get a new set of credentials.

If you would like to automatically reassume roles, with ZSH you can you can add the following to your ~/.zshrc:

export GRANTED_ENABLE_AUTO_REASSUME=true

Note

If you’re using credential_process, you shouldn’t need to export GRANTED_ENABLE_AUTO_REASSUME because AWS will automatically call the granted credential process as needed to refresh your session credentials. As we have updated our code from v0.19.0 to export only the AWS_PROFILE environment variable when using credential process.
