# Configuration: credentials

Both S3 input/output plugin provide several credential methods for authentication/authorization.

## AWS key and secret authentication

These parameters are required when your agent is not running on EC2 instance with an IAM Role. When using an IAM role, make sure to configure `instance_profile_credentials`. Usage can be found below.

### aws_key_id

AWS access key id.

### aws_sec_key

AWS secret key.

## \<assume_role_credentials\> section

Typically, you use AssumeRole for cross-account access or federation.

    <match *>
      @type s3

      <assume_role_credentials>
        role_arn          ROLE_ARN
        role_session_name ROLE_SESSION_NAME
      </assume_role_credentials>
    </match>
