Use IAM account aliases

If you want the URL for your sign-in page to contain your company name or other friendly identifier instead of your AWS account ID, you can create an alias for your AWS account.

Create an account alias

To create an account alias, call the IamClient’s createAccountAlias method with a CreateAccountAliasRequest object that contains the alias name.

Imports

import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.CreateAccountAliasRequest;
import software.amazon.awssdk.regions.Region;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.IamClient;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.IamException;

Code

public static void createIAMAccountAlias(IamClient iam, String alias) {

    try {
        CreateAccountAliasRequest request = CreateAccountAliasRequest.builder()
            .accountAlias(alias)
            .build();

        iam.createAccountAlias(request);
        System.out.println("Successfully created account alias: " + alias);

    } catch (IamException e) {
        System.err.println(e.awsErrorDetails().errorMessage());
        System.exit(1);
    }
}

See the complete example on GitHub.

List account aliases

To list your account’s alias, if any, call the IamClient’s listAccountAliases method.

Imports

import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.IamException;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.ListAccountAliasesResponse;
import software.amazon.awssdk.regions.Region;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.IamClient;

Code

public static void listAliases(IamClient iam) {

    try {
        ListAccountAliasesResponse response = iam.listAccountAliases();

        for (String alias : response.accountAliases()) {
            System.out.printf("Retrieved account alias %s", alias);
        }

    } catch (IamException e) {
        System.err.println(e.awsErrorDetails().errorMessage());
        System.exit(1);
    }

}

see the complete example on GitHub.

Delete an account alias

To delete your account’s alias, call the IamClient’s deleteAccountAlias method. When deleting an account alias, you must supply its name using a DeleteAccountAliasRequest object.

Imports

import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.DeleteAccountAliasRequest;
import software.amazon.awssdk.regions.Region;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.IamClient;
import software.amazon.awssdk.services.iam.model.IamException;

Code

public static void deleteIAMAccountAlias(IamClient iam, String alias ) {

    try {
        DeleteAccountAliasRequest request = DeleteAccountAliasRequest.builder()
                .accountAlias(alias)
                .build();

        iam.deleteAccountAlias(request);
        System.out.println("Successfully deleted account alias " + alias);

    } catch (IamException e) {
        System.err.println(e.awsErrorDetails().errorMessage());
        System.exit(1);
    }
    System.out.println("Done");
