How AWS Wickr works with IAM

Before you use IAM to manage access to Wickr, learn what IAM features are available to use with Wickr.

To get a high-level view of how Wickr and other AWS services work with most IAM features, see AWS services that work with IAM in the IAM User Guide.

Using temporary credentials with Wickr

Supports temporary credentials: No

Temporary credentials provide short-term access to AWS resources and are automatically created when you use federation or switch roles. AWS recommends that you dynamically generate temporary credentials instead of using long-term access keys. For more information, see Temporary security credentials in IAM and AWS services that work with IAM in the IAM User Guide.
