Extract AWS account ID and resource type from an AWS access key ID.

AWS Access Key ID Utility

A Python module for extracting the AWS Account ID and resource type from an AWS Access Key ID. This tool simplifies the process of decoding AWS Access Key IDs to identify account and resource information programmatically.

AWS Resource Type Prefixes

This table lists various prefixes and their associated AWS resource types. For more details, refer to the AWS IAM User Guide - Unique Identifiers.

Prefix	Resource Type
ABIA	AWS STS service bearer token
ACCA	Context-specific credential
AGPA	User group
AIDA	IAM user
AIPA	Amazon EC2 instance profile
AKIA	Access key
ANPA	Managed policy
ANVA	Version in a managed policy
APKA	Public key
AROA	Role
ASCA	Certificate
ASIA	Temporary (AWS STS) access key IDs use this prefix, but are unique only in combination with the secret access key and the session token.

Features

• Extracts the AWS Account ID from an AWS Access Key ID.
• Identifies the resource type (e.g., IAM user, role, access key).
• Lightweight and easy to integrate into your projects.

Installation

Usage

Here’s an example of how to use the module in your Python code:

Extracting AWS Account ID and Resource Type

from aws_access_key_id import get_aws_account_id, get_resource_type

# Example AWS Access Key ID
aws_access_key_id = "AKIAEXAMPLE123456"

# Extract account ID
account_id = get_aws_account_id(aws_access_key_id)
print(f"AWS Account ID: {account_id}")

# Identify resource type
resource_type = get_resource_type(aws_access_key_id[:4])
print(f"Resource Type: {resource_type}")

Functions

get_aws_account_id(aws_access_key_id: str) -> str

• Input: A valid AWS Access Key ID (e.g., "AKIAEXAMPLE123456").
• Output: The corresponding 12-digit AWS Account ID.

get_resource_type(prefix: str) -> str
