Your AWS account secret key or the secret key for an authorized IAM user.

Data Type

string

Default Value

""

Remarks

Your AWS account secret key or the secret key for an authorized IAM user. See AWSAccessKey to obtain the secret key and access key.

When AuthScheme is set to AWSMSKIAM, this property is optional. If the host machine has an attached EC2 instance IAM role, the driver automatically obtains credentials from the instance profile, so it is not necessary to specify AWSAccessKey and AWSSecretKey. When you do supply static keys, they are used as the base credentials for signing the MSK token, or, if AWSRoleARN is also set, as the base credentials for the AWS STS AssumeRole call.
