Inherit credentials from AWS role

Select this check box to obtain AWS security credentials

be started and your Job must be running on Amazon EC2. For more information, see
Using an IAM Role to Grant
Permissions to Applications Running on Amazon EC2 Instances.

assume that role. Then specify the values for the following parameters to create a new
assumed role session.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table
and fill the Code field with a context
variable to choose your database connection dynamically from multiple
connections planned in your Job. This feature is useful when you need to
access database tables having the same data structure but in different
databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you
cannot change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be
deployed and executed independent of Talend Studio.

Once a dynamic parameter is defined, the Component List box in the Basic
settings view becomes unusable.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.
