UsingTheAwsSecretsManagerPlugin
The AWS Advanced JDBC Driver supports usage of database credentials stored as secrets in the AWS Secrets Manager through the AWS Secrets Manager Connection Plugin. When you create a new connection with this plugin enabled, the plugin will retrieve the secret and the connection will be created with the credentials inside that secret.
⚠️ Note: To use this plugin, you must include the runtime dependencies Jackson Databind and AWS Secrets Manager in your project. These parameters are required for the AWS JDBC Driver to pass database credentials to the underlying driver.
To enable the AWS Secrets Manager Connection Plugin, add the plugin code awsSecretsManager to the wrapperPlugins value, or to the current driver profile.
The following properties are required for the AWS Secrets Manager Connection Plugin to retrieve database credentials from the AWS Secrets Manager.
Note: To use this plugin, you will need to set the following AWS Secrets Manager specific parameters.
| Parameter | Value | Required | Description | Example | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
