Kivo Demo

DevOps engineers use Kivo to configure how employees in their organization access infrastructure resources. Kivo simplifies and accelerates granting, revoking, and creating custom policies within the CLI — eliminating the need for tedious back-and-forth UI work.

Installation Steps

  1. Install Kivo CLI:

    brew tap permify/tap-kivo
    brew install kivo
  2. Set Up AWS Credentials:

    Kivo requires AWS credentials to be configured in the file ~/.aws/credentials. Follow these steps:

    • Create or open the ~/.aws/credentials file using a text editor:

      nano ~/.aws/credentials
    • Add your AWS credentials in the following format:

      [default]
      aws_access_key_id = your_access_key
      aws_secret_access_key = your_secret_key
      
    • Save the file and exit (in nano, press CTRL + O to save, then CTRL + X to exit).

  3. Verify the Configuration:

    Run the following command to confirm the credentials are set correctly:

    aws sts get-caller-identity

    This should return information about your AWS account. If it fails, double-check the credentials file for accuracy.

  4. Set the Default Region (Optional):

    If your tool requires a specific AWS region, you can set it in the ~/.aws/config file:

    nano ~/.aws/config

    Add:

    [default]
    region = us-east-1
    

    Replace us-east-1 with your desired region.
