How to Create & Switch between AWS profile easily
Feb 10, 2025
Fir you go to AWS console of your user and set the credential
Note that you can see your credential only once.
Now set up the AWS CLI with :
aws configure --profile mynewprofile
Then export (this is for AWS CLI v2)
export AWS_PROFILE=mynewprofile
Then test the output with
aws s3 ls
Troubleshooting : AWS_PROFILE not working or not correct account
See the problem here
aws configure list
If you see
ACCESS_KEY
andSECRET_KEY
is set differently from you account
You might have somthing in .zshrc
, .bash_profile
or other environment set. So it read the credential from there.
