Features
Auto-completion for AWS Service Principals: Provides intelligent auto-completion suggestions for AWS Service Principals when defining IAM policies or roles.
Context-aware Suggestions: The extension intelligently detects when you're working with IAM policies or roles and only suggests Service Principal completions in relevant contexts.
Supports Multiple Languages: Supports auto-completion for Service Principals in JSON, YAML, Terraform, and AWS CDK (TypeScript, and Python).
Usage
Install the "AWS IAM Service Principal Snippets" extension in VS Code.
Open or create a new file (.json, .yml, .tf, .ts, or .py) where you're defining IAM policies or roles.
When you reach a point where you need to specify a Service Principal (e.g., Principal key in JSON/YAML policies, assumed_by parameter in Python roles, etc.), start typing the name of the AWS service.
The extension will provide auto-completion suggestions for matching AWS Service Principals.
Select the desired Service Principal to insert it into your code.
Example of auto-completion in action:
Note: If auto-completion doesn't trigger automatically, press Ctrl+Space (or Cmd+Space on macOS) to manually invoke IntelliSense.
