Thanks! 👍 Me too!

The other handy thing here may be to set AWS_PROFILE in your environment to the profile containing the right set of credentials.

Thanks for the hint, BTW, I wouldn't have found that without a lot more digging!

thanks!

Still helpful 👍

Thank you!!

great

I didn't have those variables, but by moving my profile variables to [default], I was able to work around the problem. +1

thank you
