APIs like AWS require a specific signature to be set in the API header. This signature is created from the AWS Access Key, AWS Secret Key, and the message body. As a user, I should be able to choose AWS Signature as an authentication mechanism in my Authenticated API datasource.
Being able to calculate the HMAC signature for AWS will open up a lot of use-cases for the Devops community to build admin panels to control their deployments.
Is there an existing issue for this?
