Boto3 uses old credentials

Question

I am using tkinter to create gui application that returns the security groups. Currently if you want to change your credentials (e.g. if you accidentally entere

Answer 1

Sure, just create different sessions from botocore.session.Session object for each set of credentials:

import boto3
s1 = boto3.session.Session(aws_access_key_id='foo1', aws_secret_access_key='bar1')
s2 = boto3.session.Session(aws_access_key_id='foo2', aws_secret_access_key='bar2')

Also you can leverage set_credentials method to keep 1 session an change creds on the fly:

import botocore
session - botocore.session.Session()

session.set_credentials('foo', 'bar')
client = session.create_client('s3')
client._request_signer._credentials.access_key
u'foo'

session.set_credentials('foo1', 'bar')
client = session.create_client('s3')
client._request_signer._credentials.access_key
u'foo1'
