Features & Capabilities

AWS Extend Switch Roles is a powerful Chrome extension that overcomes the AWS Management Console's limitation of displaying only up to five switch roles. This tool loads your AWS configuration file to present a complete browse menu of all switch roles, streamlining role management across multiple AWS accounts and organizations.

Users can configure the extension using simple AWS config format, supporting multiple target roles expressed by role ARN or by AWS account ID and role name. It offers customization options like header color, region switching, and header image to personalize the interface. Complex configurations enable handling multiple base accounts and target roles with support for account aliases and source profiles, making it ideal for multi-account AWS environments. Through its intuitive popup form, you can easily edit and save your profiles for quick access. This extension is an essential productivity tool for AWS users managing numerous IAM roles.

Is AWS Extend Switch Roles Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

AWS Extend Switch Roles requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
