<h2 id="secrets-manager">Secrets Manager</h2>
<p>A <code>SecretStore</code> points to AWS Secrets Manager in a certain account within a
defined region. You should define Roles that define fine-grained access to
individual secrets and pass them to ESO using <code>spec.provider.aws.role</code>. This
way users of the <code>SecretStore</code> can only access the secrets necessary.</p>

<h3 id="json-secret-values">JSON Secret Values</h3>
<p>SecretsManager supports <em>simple</em> key/value pairs that are stored as json. If you use the API you can store more complex JSON objects. You can access nested values or arrays using <a href="https://github.com/tidwall/gjson/blob/master/SYNTAX.md">gjson syntax</a>:</p>
<p>Consider the following JSON object that is stored in the SecretsManager key <code>my-json-secret</code>:
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="p">{</span>
  <span class="nt">&quot;name&quot;</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="p">{</span><span class="nt">&quot;first&quot;</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s2">&quot;Tom&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="nt">&quot;last&quot;</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="s2">&quot;Anderson&quot;</span><span class="p">},</span>

<h3 id="controllers-pod-identity">Controller's Pod Identity</h3>
<p><img alt="Pod Identity Authentication" src="../pictures/diagrams-provider-aws-auth-pod-identity.png" /></p>
<p>This is basicially a zero-configuration authentication method that inherits the credentials from the runtime environment using the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/credentials.html#credentials-default">aws sdk default credential chain</a>.</p>
<p>You can attach a role to the pod using <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/iam-roles-for-service-accounts.html">IRSA</a>, <a href="https://github.com/uswitch/kiam">kiam</a> or <a href="https://github.com/jtblin/kube2iam">kube2iam</a>. When no other authentication method is configured in the <code>Kind=Secretstore</code> this role is used to make all API calls against AWS Secrets Manager or SSM Parameter Store.</p>
<p>Based on the Pod's identity you can do a <code>sts:assumeRole</code> before fetching the secrets to limit access to certain keys in your provider. This is optional.</p>

<h3 id="eks-service-account-credentials">EKS Service Account credentials</h3>
<p><img alt="Service Account" src="../pictures/diagrams-provider-aws-auth-service-account.png" /></p>
<p>This feature lets you use short-lived service account tokens to authenticate with AWS.
You must have <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-service-account/#service-account-token-volume-projection">Service Account Volume Projection</a> enabled - it is by default on EKS. See <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/iam-roles-for-service-accounts-technical-overview.html">EKS guide</a> on how to set up IAM roles for service accounts.</p>
