All about Cloud, mostly about Amazon Web Services (AWS)

acons

acons uses the AWS Access Key and AWS Secret access key stored in the ~/.aws/credentials file to generate a URL that provides authenticated login to the AWS Console. If MFA is usually required to login, it will not be required using acons.

It is described in details at Quick AWS Console Login

Usage

When invoked as acons -h, the following help message is displayed:


$ ./acons -h
