h @mbarneyjr do you have update?

I don't understand the purpose of this PR. What extra functionality does it provide? What's the use case for it?

giuliocalzolari commented 6 years ago

when you perform a sts switch role you cannot specify the session name, in same use case is nice to set it for audit purpose. only performing an sts:assumerole action the original username is preserved but if you do a sts:getsessiontoken in the destination account you only see the session name.

having the option to setup the session name with a custom string could be a nice feature
