---------------------------------

> Kinesis consumer doc examples should demonstrate preferred default
> credentials provider
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-8416
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8416
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, Kinesis Connector
> Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.7.0, 1.8.0
>
>
> The Kinesis consumer docs
> [here](https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.5/dev/connectors/kinesis.html#kinesis-consumer)
> demonstrate providing credentials by explicitly supplying the AWS Access ID
> and Key.
> The always preferred approach for AWS, unless running locally, is to
> automatically fetch the shipped credentials from the AWS environment.
> That is actually the default behaviour of the Kinesis consumer, so the docs
> should demonstrate that more clearly.
