Is there a node.js default credential provider chain?

Question

I'm writing a node.js app that uses the AWS SDK.

The java documentation describes a very convenient concept called the default credential provider chain. I could not find the same concept in the Node.js API documentation.

I'm hoping that node/javascript has this as an undocumented feature. Does the javascript API provide a default credential provider chain, and if so, how do I use it?

Answer 1

You can use CredentialProviderChain:

const awsManageStore = new AWS.SSM(AWS.CredentialProviderChain.defaultProviders);
