    Hi Neeraj,

    I understand that the explanation might come slightly off, as access keys cannot be directly associated with an IAM Role. Temporary security credentials are automatically generated when an IAM user assumes a role, which includes an access key, a secret key, and a security token. The IAM user uses these keys to make API calls to other services on behalf of the assumed role. Moreover, it’s important to note that the credentials generated when assuming a role are tied to the role user, not the actual IAM role. This means that the access keys can only be used by the IAM user who has assumed the role and is not valid outside the role session.

    Having that said, our team will review this item and make necessary improvements accordingly.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Regards,

    Nikee @ Tutorials Dojo
