Python Data Ingestion (Start with API call "Get" to AWS S3 Bucket), how to manage the username/pwd/api-key and token( expired in short time window)

data source is from SaaS Server's API endpoints, aim to use python to move data into AWS S3 Bucket(Python's Boto3 lib) API is assigned via authorized Username/password combination and unique api-key. then every time initially call API need get Token for further info fetch.

have 2 question:

  1. how to manage those secrets above, save to a head file (*.ini, *.json *.yaml) or saved via AWS's Secret-Manager?
  2. the Token is a bit challenging, the basically way is each Endpoint, fetch a new token and do the API call then that's end of too many pipeline (like if 100 Endpoints info need per downstream business needs) then need to craft 100 pipeline like an universal template repeating 100 times.

I am new to Python programing world, you all feel free to comment to share any user-case. Much appreciate !!

I searched and read this show-case

I found this has been helpful:

  • #Python-decopule summary: store parameters in .ini or .env files;

  • #few options of manage(hiding) sensitive info

     a.  IAM role

 b.  Store Secrets using **Parameter Store**

 c.  Store Secrets using **Secrets Manager** - Current method
    recommended by AWS
