🧩 AWS Signature

Generic Extractor allows signing requests with AWS Signature Version 4. Signing is the process of adding authentication information to your requests. When you use AWS tools, the extractor signs your API request.

A sample AWS signature configuration looks like this:

{
  ...,
  "aws": {
    "signature": {
      "credentials": {
        "accessKeyId": "testAccessKey",
        "#secretKey": "testSecretKey",
        "serviceName": "testService",
        "regionName": "testRegion"
      }
    }
  }
}

See example [EX143].

AWS Signature Credentials
