I want to take aws credentials from the aws-vault exec environment and store them in a file
When I try to print the credentials with
aws-vault exec default -- echo ${AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID} I got only an empty string

1Did you try: `aws-vault exec default -- env | grep AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` ? – Arpit Jain May 23 '23 at 08:43

As per aws-vault : How it works,
Environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN etc.) are written to the sub-process with aws-vault exec, so you can grep out for AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY like below:-
aws-vault exec default -- env | grep AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

This should also work:- `aws-vault exec default -- env | echo $AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` – Arpit Jain May 23 '23 at 09:15
