This module provides a provider for AWS Secrets Manager - https://aws.amazon.com/secrets-manager/ Code for authenticating with AWS has been has been forked from ex_aws See https://github.com/ex-aws/ex_aws

Configuration

config :ex_secrets, :providers, %{
      aws_secrets_manager: %{
        access_key_id: "taccess_key_id",
        secret_access_key: "secret_access_key"
      }
    }

Its is recomended to create an access key and secret access key for the access key with only the required permissions. Limiting thye scope of the access key will help in reducing the risk of the access key being compromised.
