Is possible to create environment variables in windows EC2 instance without SSM document

Question

HI,

I already tried to create environment variables in the AWS Windows Ec2 instance using the Boto3 + SSM document. But can we do the same thing without using the access key and secret key? I'm not sure about this. I would like to create any environment variables in AWS Ec2 windows instance using boto3 and access those variables from outside. Is any alternate for Accesskey and secret key?

Hi@Lakshminarayanan,

When we connect AWS console using SDK  then we require an access key and secret key. You can't connect to the console without any key. You can also try with password passed authentication. Otherwise, there is no way to connect to the console.
