Install the AWS CLI & OIDC Agent

As our Astran S5 API is compatible with AWS S3, you can use it with AWS official AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). With just this tool to download and configure, you can control all Astran S5 services from the command line and automate them through scripts.

Install or update the AWS CLI

You can refer to the AWS CLI User Guide for more information on how to install the AWS CLI.

If you are a Windows 10 or 11 user, we recommend using the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and following the instructions for Linux.

Install OIDC Agent

Astran S5 users must authenticate to an OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider. When working with the CLI, we recommend using a dedicated OIDC client like OIDC-agent to retrieve and store OIDC tokens.

You can refer to its official documentation for installation instructions.
