ProfileCredentialsProvider with Amazon SES and Spring Boot

I want to Send an Email with Amazon SES and SpringBoot, I have this config file:

@Configuration
public class MailConfig {

    @Bean
    public AmazonSimpleEmailService amazonSimpleEmailService() {

        return AmazonSimpleEmailServiceClientBuilder.standard()
                .withCredentials(new ProfileCredentialsProvider("ses-smtp-user.2024321-167419"))
                .withRegion(Regions.EU_WEST_2)
                .build();
    }

    @Bean("myMailSender")
    public MailSender mailSender(
            AmazonSimpleEmailService amazonSimpleEmailService) {
        return new SimpleEmailServiceMailSender(amazonSimpleEmailService);
    }
}

using the field IAM User name from the credentials:

enter image description here

but I have this error when starting the app:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No AWS profile named 'ses-smtp-user.20211221-172419'

The string you pass to ProfileCredentialsProvider() is a local profile name, that should be a name present in your local .aws/credentials file. You're trying to pass it an IAM user name, which is a totally different thing.

First, I suggest you read the documentation.

Second, I suggest you use environment variables instead of hard-coding any sort of credential settings in your code. You can either set the AWS_PROFILE environment variable, or set the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables, and then your code would look like this:

return AmazonSimpleEmailServiceClientBuilder.standard()
                .withRegion(Regions.EU_WEST_2)
                .build();

And in addition to being cleaner and simpler code, it will also automatically use the environment's assigned IAM role when running on EC2, ECS, Lambda, etc..
