#   ## - ap-southeast-1
#   ## - ap-southeast-2

#   ## Amazon Credentials
#   ## Credentials are loaded in the following order

#   ## 4) shared profile from 'profile'
#   ## 5) environment variables
#   ## 6) shared credentials file
#   ## 7) EC2 Instance Profile
#   #access_key = ""
#   #secret_key = ""
#   #token = ""
#   #role_arn = ""
#   #web_identity_token_file = ""
#   #role_session_name = ""
   profile = "profile_name"
#   #shared_credential_file = ""
#
#   ## Endpoint to make request against, the correct endpoint is automatically
#   ## determined and this option should only be set if you wish to override the

#   ##   ex: endpoint_url = "http://localhost:8000"
#   # endpoint_url = ""
