Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
access_key aliases: aws_access_key_id, aws_access_key, ec2_access_key string	AWS access key ID. See the AWS documentation for more information about access tokens https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-sec-cred-types.html#access-keys-and-secret-access-keys. The `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_ACCESS_KEY` or `EC2_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables may also be used in decreasing order of preference. The aws_access_key and profile options are mutually exclusive. The aws_access_key_id alias was added in release 5.1.0 for consistency with the AWS botocore SDK. The ec2_access_key alias has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01. Support for the `EC2_ACCESS_KEY` environment variable has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.
aws_ca_bundle path	The location of a CA Bundle to use when validating SSL certificates. The `AWS_CA_BUNDLE` environment variable may also be used.
aws_config dictionary	A dictionary to modify the botocore configuration. Parameters can be found in the AWS documentation https://botocore.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/config.html#botocore.config.Config.
debug_botocore_endpoint_logs boolean	Use a `botocore.endpoint` logger to parse the unique (rather than total) `"resource:action"` API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the `aws_resource_action` callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The `ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS` environment variable may also be used. Choices: `false` ← (default) `true`
endpoint_url aliases: ec2_url, aws_endpoint_url, s3_url string	URL to connect to instead of the default AWS endpoints. While this can be used to connection to other AWS-compatible services the amazon.aws and community.aws collections are only tested against AWS. The `AWS_URL` or `EC2_URL` environment variables may also be used, in decreasing order of preference. The ec2_url and s3_url aliases have been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01. Support for the `EC2_URL` environment variable has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.
names list / elements=string	A list of names to filter on. If a listed group does not exist, there will be no corresponding entry in the result; no error will be raised. Default: `[]`
profile aliases: aws_profile string	A named AWS profile to use for authentication. See the AWS documentation for more information about named profiles https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-profiles.html. The `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable may also be used. The profile option is mutually exclusive with the aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token options.
region aliases: aws_region, ec2_region string	The AWS region to use. For global services such as IAM, Route53 and CloudFront, region is ignored. The `AWS_REGION` or `EC2_REGION` environment variables may also be used. See the Amazon AWS documentation for more information http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region. The `ec2_region` alias has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01 Support for the `EC2_REGION` environment variable has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.
secret_key aliases: aws_secret_access_key, aws_secret_key, ec2_secret_key string	AWS secret access key. See the AWS documentation for more information about access tokens https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-sec-cred-types.html#access-keys-and-secret-access-keys. The `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `AWS_SECRET_KEY`, or `EC2_SECRET_KEY` environment variables may also be used in decreasing order of preference. The secret_key and profile options are mutually exclusive. The aws_secret_access_key alias was added in release 5.1.0 for consistency with the AWS botocore SDK. The ec2_secret_key alias has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01. Support for the `EC2_SECRET_KEY` environment variable has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.
session_token aliases: aws_session_token, security_token, aws_security_token, access_token string	AWS STS session token for use with temporary credentials.

The `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN`, `AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN` or `EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN` environment variables may also be used in decreasing order of preference. The security_token and profile options are mutually exclusive. Aliases aws_session_token and session_token were added in release 3.2.0, with the parameter being renamed from security_token to session_token in release 6.0.0. The security_token, aws_security_token, and access_token aliases have been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01. Support for the `EC2_SECRET_KEY` and `AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN` environment variables has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after 2024-12-01.
validate_certs boolean	When set to `false`, SSL certificates will not be validated for communication with the AWS APIs. Setting validate_certs=false is strongly discouraged, as an alternative, consider setting aws_ca_bundle instead. Choices: `false` `true` ← (default)

Notes 

Note

Caution: For modules, environment variables and configuration files are read from the Ansible ‘host’ context and not the ‘controller’ context. As such, files may need to be explicitly copied to the ‘host’. For lookup and connection plugins, environment variables and configuration files are read from the Ansible ‘controller’ context and not the ‘host’ context.
The AWS SDK (boto3) that Ansible uses may also read defaults for credentials and other settings, such as the region, from its configuration files in the Ansible ‘host’ context (typically ~/.aws/credentials). See https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/credentials.html for more information.
