A browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge that extends the AWS Management Console's built-in IAM role switching. It lets users configure a custom list of switchable roles (via INI-format config) and shows them in a color-coded menu, with sync support across browsers.

Use cases

• switch between many AWS IAM roles quickly from the console
• keep a persistent list of AWS roles instead of the last 5 history entries
• color-code AWS console sessions by account or role
• sync AWS switch-role configuration across Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
• manage multi-account AWS access from the browser

When to choose

• you frequently assume IAM roles across multiple AWS accounts via the console
• you want a configurable, color-coded role switcher menu
• you need your role list synced across browsers

When to avoid

• you sign in directly with AWS SSO or SAML and need to switch between those accounts (not supported)
• you need role switching from the CLI or SDK rather than the browser console
• you rely on very old browser versions
