Code Editor Connections and Extensions
Code Editor supports IDE connections to Amazon Web Services services as well as extensions available
in the Open VSX Registry
Connections to Amazon
Code Editor environments are integrated with the Amazon Toolkit for VS Code to add connections to Amazon Web Services services. To get started with connections to Amazon Web Services services, you must have valid Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) credentials. For more information, see Authentication and access for the Amazon Toolkit for Visual Studio Code.
Within your Code Editor environment, you can add connections to:
-
Amazon Explorer – View, modify, and deploy Amazon resources in Amazon S3, CloudWatch, and more.
Accessing certain features within Amazon Explorer requires certain Amazon permissions. For more information, see Authentication and access for the Amazon Toolkit for Visual Studio Code.
-
Amazon CodeWhisperer – Build applications faster with AI-powered code suggestions.
To use Amazon CodeWhisperer with Code Editor, you must add the following permissions to your SageMaker AI execution role.
{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Sid": "CodeWhispererPermissions", "Effect": "Allow", "Action": ["codewhisperer:GenerateRecommendations"], "Resource": "*" } ] }For more information, see Creating IAM policies and Adding and removing IAM identity permissions in the IAM User Guide.
