# AWS Secret Backend
|
|
|
|
Name: `aws`
|
|
|
|
The AWS secret backend for Vault generates AWS access credentials dynamically
|
|
based on IAM policies. This makes IAM much easier to use: credentials could
|
|
be generated on the fly, and are automatically revoked when the Vault
|
|
lease is expired.
|
|
|
|
This page will show a quick start for this backend. For detailed documentation
|
|
on every path, use `vault help` after mounting the backend.
