Extracted from percona#5804, which introduces the ability to assume an IAM role using ambient credentials for RDS discovery and monitoring. Splitting the docs into their own PR so they don't merge ahead of the PMM release that ships the feature. Signed-off-by: Fergal Kearns <fergal.kearns@deliveroo.co.uk>
WalkthroughThe AWS connection guide now directs non-AWS and cross-account deployments to ambient-credential IAM role-assumption instructions. It documents component behavior, credential refresh, trust policies, CLI configuration, static-key incompatibility, migration commands, and API or CLI limitations. ChangesAWS role assumption guidance

In `@documentation/docs/install-pmm/install-pmm-client/connect-database/aws.md`:
- Around line 206-209: Update the Availability note and later Add Instance
instructions to clarify that leaving the key fields empty applies only to the
AWS-native same-account IAM role path; direct cross-account IAM-role users and
non-AWS users to the API or pmm-admin commands, since the web UI cannot accept
the role ARN.
- Around line 162-176: Convert the JSON and shell code blocks in this
documentation section to the repository’s configured indented Markdown style,
covering the blocks containing the AssumeRole policy and shell commands.
Preserve their content and language-specific formatting while removing the
fenced-block syntax so markdownlint MD046 passes.
- Around line 191-204: Remove the IAM role ARN configuration and migration
instructions from the AWS RDS exporter documentation, including the
--aws-role-arn examples and related caution text, since
AddAgentRDSExporterCommand and ChangeAgentRDSExporterCommand do not support that
option.
- Around line 142-150: Remove the IAM role discovery, ambient-identity,
trust-policy, and AssumeRole guidance from the AWS RDS documentation, including
the statements about PMM Server and pmm-agent assuming roles. Keep the
instructions limited to the supported access-key and secret-key authentication
flow and update surrounding text so it no longer implies role ARN support.
- Around line 159-176: Remove the unsupported IAM role-assumption instructions
from the AWS database documentation, including the trust policy and related
role-based command guidance. Keep only authentication options supported by the
checked-in pmm-admin RDS exporter, such as AWSAccessKey and AWSSecretKey.
- Around line 134-138: Update the AWS role-assumption documentation to state
only that PMM does not use its configured aws_access_key or aws_secret_key as
the source identity when AWSRoleArn is set; do not claim that environment or
shared AWS credential sources are excluded. Remove the claim that PMM Server
accepts or forwards aws_role_arn, while preserving the remaining role-assumption
guidance.

site:github.com/percona/rds_exporter AssumeRole LoadDefaultConfig AWS role ARN credentials
💡 Result:
To assume an AWS role using an IAM role ARN with the AWS SDK for Go v2, you do not use LoadDefaultConfig directly to perform the assume role operation. Instead, you load the base configuration and then configure a credential provider that performs the AssumeRole call. The standard approach involves using the github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/credentials/stscreds package. Specifically, you create an STS client and use it to configure an AssumeRoleProvider. 1. Load the base configuration (e.g., from environment variables or local credentials). 2. Create an STS client using this configuration. 3. Use stscreds.NewAssumeRoleProvider to create a provider that assumes the target role. 4. Update your AWS SDK configuration to use this new provider. Example implementation: import ( "context" "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/config" "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/credentials/stscreds" "github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go-v2/service/sts") // Load base config cfg, err:= config.LoadDefaultConfig(context.TODO) // Create STS client stsClient:= sts.NewFromConfig(cfg) // Create provider to assume the role provider:= stscreds.NewAssumeRoleProvider(stsClient, "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/YourRoleName") // Apply the provider to your configuration cfg.Credentials = aws.NewCredentialsCache(provider) This pattern allows the SDK to automatically handle the temporary credential lifecycle, including refreshing the tokens before they expire. While some third-party applications may abstract this via configuration files, the underlying mechanism in the AWS SDK for Go v2 relies on the stscreds package.

Limit the source-credential guarantee, matey.
rds_exporter ignores the configured aws_access_key and aws_secret_key when AWSRoleArn is set, but its default chain still allows environment variables and ~/.aws/credentials to provide the source identity. Limit the sentence to PMM’s configured access-key fields. PMM Server also does not accept or forward aws_role_arn, so remove the PMM Server role-assumption claim.

Remove the unsupported IAM-role instructions, matey.
The API, persistence model, pmm-admin commands, and rdsExporterConfig support only access keys and secret keys. They have no aws-role-arn or AssumeRole path. The documented commands cannot work, and PMM cannot assume the documented role.

The checked-in pmm-admin RDS exporter commands expose only AWSAccessKey and AWSSecretKey. No --aws-role-arn flag or role ARN API field exists. The trust policy and documented command therefore describe an unsupported PMM path, matey.

Remove the unsupported role-migration commands.
AddAgentRDSExporterCommand and ChangeAgentRDSExporterCommand do not define --aws-role-arn, and the inventory API has no corresponding field. Kong rejects this flag, so users cannot configure or migrate RDS agents to an IAM role. Arrr, remove these instructions or implement the API and CLI contract.

Clarify the web UI limitation.
Aye, this note says the web page does not expose the role ARN, but the later Add Instance instructions still tell users to leave the key fields empty when an IAM role was created. State that empty fields apply only to the AWS-native same-account role path. Direct cross-account and non-AWS users to the API or pmm-admin.

Adopt the assumed-role implementation from #5804 (by Fergal Kearns) onto current main, squashed into one commit. PMM can assume an AWS IAM role using its own ambient credentials instead of long-lived access keys, for both RDS discovery (on PMM Server) and rds_exporter scraping (on the pmm-agent host). Adds aws_role_arn across the RDS API surface, mutually exclusive with the access/secret key; assumes the role once per partition during discovery; groups rds_exporter processes by credential identity; and exposes --aws-role-arn on the pmm-admin RDS commands. AWS SDK bumped to the versions already on main, with service/sts promoted to a direct dependency. Docs are intentionally excluded; they land via #5838. Known defects from the #5804 review are fixed in follow-up commits on this branch. Original PR: #5804 Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com>

* PMM-15389 Add instance_id to inventory RDS node API/CLI AddRemoteRDSNodeParams had no instance_id field and `pmm-admin inventory add node remote-rds` had no flag for it, so every remote-RDS node created through the inventory path stored an empty identifier. rds_exporter then received `instance: ""`, logged "No scraper for <region>/, skipping." and collected nothing while the agent reported AGENT_STATUS_RUNNING. PMM-13157 split address from instance_id but wired the new field through the management API only; the inventory API and CLI were never updated. This adds instance_id to AddRemoteRDSNodeParams and to the CLI, and refuses the broken state at source: an empty identifier is rejected at node creation (InvalidArgument), and attaching an rds_exporter to a remote_rds node that lacks one is rejected at agent creation (FailedPrecondition), which also covers rows created before this fix. The stale "DB instance identifier" comment on the address field is corrected in both RemoteRDSNode and AddRemoteRDSNodeParams. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Make --instance-id a required CLI flag The help text already said it was required, but Kong accepted an omitted value and sent an empty identifier the server then rejected.

Original PR: #5804 Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Bound and validate RDS role assumption in discovery Fixes two defects in the DiscoverRDS assume-role path found reviewing #5804. The STS AssumeRole call ran on the raw request context, before the awsDiscoverTimeout region-scan deadline was applied, and the HTTP client had no timeout of its own. A slow or unreachable STS endpoint could hang DiscoverRDS for minutes. The assume now runs under its own awsDiscoverTimeout deadline and the HTTP client carries a matching per-request ceiling. The role ARN's partition was never checked against settings.AWSPartitions. A role in a partition PMM is not configured to scan could assume successfully and then fail every scanned region, or return nothing with no error. The partition is now rejected up front with FailedPrecondition, before any network call. stsRegionForRoleARN returns the partition for this check. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Gate RDS role ARN on pmm-agent 3.4.0 A pmm-agent older than 3.4.0 bundles an rds_exporter that assumes an IAM role from empty static credentials rather than the ambient chain, so the sts:AssumeRole is never signed and the exporter dies with EmptyStaticCreds. Before this, a current server accepted --aws-role-arn for such an agent, returned success, and left the exporter failing with no server-side signal. CreateAgent and ChangeAgent now reject a role-based rds_exporter whose pmm-agent is below PMMAgentMinVersionForAWSRoleARN (3.4.0-0), with FailedPrecondition. Static-key exporters are unaffected. An agent with no reported version is treated as unsupported, which is the safe default. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Make clearing an RDS role ARN an explicit change Clearing the role ARN (--aws-role-arn="") without also supplying keys leaves the exporter with empty AWS options, so rds_exporter falls back to the pmm-agent host's ambient credentials - often a broader identity than the role the operator deliberately chose. This transition was silent: the CLI printed only "cleared AWS role ARN". Ambient credentials are a legitimate mode, so this is not rejected; instead it is made explicit. The pmm-admin change command now states that the exporter will use the host's ambient credentials when the ARN is cleared without keys, the flag help spells out the mutual-exclusion and clear semantics, and ChangeRDSExporter logs a Warn covering the API and UI callers that do not see the CLI message. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Version pmm-server in roster role-ARN test The 3.4.0 role-ARN gate rejects a role-based rds_exporter whose pmm-agent reports no version. TestRoster/GetFallbackHandlesRoleARN creates one on the built-in pmm-server agent, which the test fixtures seed without a version, so the gate refused it. Give that agent a supported version in the test, as any running 3.4.0+ server would report once the built-in agent connects. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Allow RDS role ARN when pmm-agent version is unknown The pmm-agent 3.4.0 gate rejected a role ARN whenever IsAgentSupported returned any error, which includes the 'no version info' case for a pmm-agent that has not connected yet. Reject only AgentNotSupportedError (a pmm-agent known to be too old); an unreported version no longer blocks storing the config and the gate re-checks once the agent connects. This is what the api-test TestRDSExporter/WithRoleARN and the feature's own intent expect. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> (cherry picked from commit 1ebc19b) * PMM-15389 Fix golangci-lint findings in RDS role ARN code Shorten the change-agent role-ARN help to satisfy lll, drop the named returns on stsRegionForRoleARN, and remove a redundant .Querier selector in the roster test (golangci-lint --fix). Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Tighten role-ARN version gate and STS timeout Address CodeRabbit review on #5944: - The role-ARN gate allowed on any non-AgentNotSupportedError, so a present-but-malformed pmm-agent version (and, on the change path, a PMM Agent lookup error) silently persisted an unverifiable role ARN. Add an ErrAgentVersionNotReported sentinel and allow only that case; reject the rest. - DiscoverRDS reported an STS timeout as FailedPrecondition; return DeadlineExceeded for context cancellation/deadline instead. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Backfill instance_id on remote RDS nodes Migration 110 filled instance_id only for the remote RDS nodes that existed at the time. AddRemoteRDSNode never passed InstanceID on, so every node created through the inventory API or `pmm-admin inventory add node remote-rds` since then has an empty instance_id. Its rds_exporter queries CloudWatch with an empty DBInstanceIdentifier, and the new guard now refuses to attach an exporter to it at all, with no API to update the node. Fill it in from the first label of the address. That is the DB instance identifier whether the address holds the bare identifier, as the inventory API documents, or the RDS endpoint. Nodes that already have an instance_id are left alone. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Refuse role ARN on unversioned pmm-agent The role ARN check let through a pmm-agent that had not reported a version yet. Such an agent can be older than 3.4.0: it would accept the config, report RUNNING and scrape nothing. Nothing checks the version again once the agent connects, despite what the comment said. Treat an unreported version like any other failed version check, as IsAgentSupported does everywhere else, and drop the ErrAgentVersionNotReported sentinel that only served this exception. The api-test that stored a role ARN on a never-connected pmm-agent now uses the pmm-server agent, and a new subtest checks that the never-connected case is refused. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Refuse duplicate RDS instance IDs UNIQUE (address, region) used to cover the DB instance identifier because the address was the identifier. Since the address became the endpoint, two remote RDS nodes in one region can carry the same instance_id, and rds_exporter then queries CloudWatch for that instance twice. Check instance_id and region when creating a remote RDS node, next to the address check. The check is in the application only, since existing data may already hold duplicates or empty values. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Withhold role-based RDS exporters from old agents The pmm-agent version was only checked when an rds_exporter with a role ARN was created or changed. A pmm-agent downgraded below 3.4.0 afterwards still received the role in its state, ran an rds_exporter that ignores it, reported RUNNING and scraped nothing. The state updater now re-checks the version every time it sends the state and leaves such an exporter out with a warning. The change-time gate runs only when the request sets a role ARN, so an exporter stuck on a downgraded agent can still be disabled, relabelled or moved to ambient credentials. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Avoid %q in RDS role error messages Partitions and role ARNs contain no spaces, so %s reads better and follows the error message convention. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Scan only the role's partition in RDS discovery Credentials assumed for a role are valid only in the role's own partition, yet discovery scanned every region of every enabled partition. The extra calls could only fail, and when the role's partition had no instances the first such failure was returned instead of an empty list. The discovery tests now run the role path against a fake STS and RDS endpoint and check, from the SigV4 credential scope, which regions were signed. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Derive instance_id from bare RDS address Before 3.4.0 the inventory API took the DB instance identifier as the address, and rds_exporter used the address as its instance. Clients from that time, including older pmm-admin builds, still send it that way and omit instance_id. PMM-13157 moved the exporter to instance_id without wiring the inventory path, so those clients have scraped nothing since, and the new empty-identifier check would have rejected them outright. When instance_id is empty and the address has no dots, use the address as the identifier, which restores the pre-3.4.0 contract. An endpoint address without an identifier is still refused: its first label is only right for a standard instance endpoint, not for a cluster endpoint, a CNAME or an IP. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Backfill instance_id from bare addresses Splitting the first label off an endpoint stores a wrong identifier for an Aurora cluster endpoint, a CNAME or an IP. rds_exporter drops such an instance with "can't determine resourceID" just as it does an empty one, but the wrong value passes the new CreateAgent guard, looks plausible in the inventory, and cannot be corrected through the API. Backfill only rows whose address has no dots, the same rule the creation fallback uses. Endpoint addresses stay empty so that attaching an rds_exporter is refused and the node is re-added with --instance-id. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Limit rds_exporter to remote RDS nodes Generic and container nodes allow every agent type, so an rds_exporter could be attached to one and skip the instance_id guard. The guard would not help there anyway: migration 110 copied the address into instance_id for every node type. rds_exporter scrapes CloudWatch for the node's region and DB instance identifier, so it only makes sense on a remote RDS node. Refuse the combination in compatibleNodeAndAgent and drop the node-type condition from the guard, which is now redundant. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Lowercase RDS instance identifiers AWS stores DB instance identifiers in lowercase, and rds_exporter compares the configured value against DescribeDBInstances with plain string equality before using it as the CloudWatch dimension. A mixed-case identifier never matches, and the uniqueness check does not see it as a duplicate of the lowercase one. Lowercase the identifier in createNodeWithID before validation, storage and the uniqueness check, which covers the inventory and the management path. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Test --instance-id parsing Cover the required flag and the request body: parsing fails without --instance-id, and the value reaches remote_rds.instance_id. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Clarify RDS node address comments Nodes created before 3.4.0 or through the inventory API hold the bare identifier in address, not the endpoint. Say so on both messages, describe the instance_id fallback and lowercasing, and call RemoteRDSNode.instance_id a DB instance identifier rather than an AWS instance ID, which reads like an EC2 ID. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Update API descriptors Add the instance_id field on AddRemoteRDSNodeParams to the buf breaking baseline. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Lowercase identifiers in migration 119 Migration 110 copied the address into instance_id as typed, and the management API stores the identifier it is given, so existing remote RDS nodes can carry a mixed-case identifier. AWS stores DB instance identifiers in lowercase and rds_exporter matches them exactly, so such a node passes the new guard and still scrapes nothing. Lowercase existing identifiers and the backfilled bare addresses, the same rule createNodeWithID now applies to new nodes. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Regenerate nodes.pb.go with make gen The file committed in bdbbe96 came from make -C api gen without the formatting pass that make gen runs last, so CI's format check restored the blank line gofumpt inserts before the depIdxs declaration. Regenerated with make gen and make format in the devcontainer; that blank line is the only change. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Honor AWS_REGION when assuming RDS role DiscoverRDS always assumed the IAM role against the partition's home region (us-east-1 for commercial AWS), even when PMM Server had a region configured. A server whose egress is limited to one region could never reach that STS endpoint and failed with "Timed out assuming role". Assume the role in the region the AWS SDK resolved from AWS_REGION, AWS_DEFAULT_REGION or the profile, and keep the partition default only as the fallback for a server with no region configured. A configured region outside the role's partition cannot issue its credentials, so reject it up front with a FailedPrecondition that names the variable, before any network call. Only the STS call moves. Region scanning, the partition allow-list in settings, and the discovery deadlines are unchanged. Signed-off-by: Ante Gulin <ante.gulin@percona.com> * PMM-15389 Allow AWS_REGION env vars in pmm-managed AWS_REGION and AWS_DEFAULT_REGION now steer which STS endpoint PMM Server uses to assume an RDS role, so they are documented input rather than unknown variables.

Why?
#5804 adds the ability to assume an IAM role using ambient credentials for RDS discovery and monitoring, and includes a docs update for it. Per review feedback on that PR, docs cannot merge ahead of the PMM release that ships the feature, so this PR extracts just the docs change.
What?
Adds the "Assuming an IAM role" section to
documentation/docs/install-pmm/install-pmm-client/connect-database/aws.md, describing how to set up a trust policy and supply a role ARN instead of static access keys.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
