https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-mixin-aws/pull/27 was introduced earlier this year, which gave the ability for AWS plugins that use the AWS mixin library to support assuming roles.

This is however, not documented anywhere, and there are some pitfalls that users can easily fall into when attempting to use the feature. The feature should be documented in each of the plugins that support it:

It is also used in this plugin, which is currently undocumented (issue)
