Environment variable support for SSO

[jjshoe]

Describe the feature

A lot of CLI configuration can be controlled via environment variables, but the SSO parameters are not available. Reference: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-envvars.html

Use Case

If I can pass in configuration via env vars it makes it easier to automate writing out the credentials file. Expanded:

1. write a config
2. get credentials
3. write a config again

If I can set sso params as env vars, I can reduce it down to:

1. get credentials
2. write a config

Additionally this is useful in scenarios like:

• Read only file system
• ci/cd where you don't want to risk inclusion

Hi @jjshoe thanks for the feature request. Which environment variables specifically would you like to see get created for SSO? Please let me know if there is anything you want to expand on as far as how these would help your workflows.

I can reach out to the SSO team regarding your request but will probably transfer this issue to our cross-SDK repository since environment variables are shared across SDKs.

Thanks for following up. I'll go ahead and transfer this to our cross-SDK repository as environment variables are used across AWS SDKs. If there are any further details or feedback you'd like to provide please let us know.
