Enabling the IAM Identity Center requires access to the root user account, and the account must be part of an AWS Organization. The first method establishes a connection using IAM Identity Center credentials (the successor to AWS Single Sign-On). There are two methods for establishing a connection between VSCode and your AWS Account. Inputting Your AWS Credentials into VSCode Now that we have the AWS Toolkit for VSCode installed, let’s take a look at the two methodologies for establishing a connection between AWS and VSCode.

The install should complete relatively quickly and once it is done navigate to the AWS icon on the left-side menu to open the AWS Toolkit.In the Extensions menu search for AWS Toolkit, select the AWS Toolkit and click on Install.Open VSCode and navigate to the Extensions menu on the left-side menu.You’ll find the directions for the installation outline below.

In order to establish a connection to AWS using VSCode, you will have to install the AWS Toolkit for VSCode. Prior to diving into AWS and selecting the appropriate connection method, let’s take care of an installation upfront in VSCode. So, without further ado, let’s dive into the process of connecting VSCode to you AWS account! Downloading the AWS Toolkit for VSCode zip files containing the external libraries leveraged by your application. Gone are the days of having to develop applications in the AWS Console and having to upload. For example, users can develop and deploy an AWS Lambda Function that populates a Snowflake table via Snowpark all as a single package automatically (more on this in a later article). One of my favorite tools to achieve this locally is the AWS Toolkit for VSCode because it streamlines the application development process in a simple and pain-free manner. There are several ways to develop, debug and deploy serverless applications to Amazon Web Services (AWS).
