Deprecated: use the shared AWS Config (ec-aws-config) for new SQS nodes. Existing flows that reference this config keep working; to migrate, open each SQS node and pick an AWS config.
Stores AWS SQS connection credentials securely. Referenced by all SQS operation nodes.
Configuration
- Auth Mode enum
- IAM Role — uses the ECS Task Role attached to the container (recommended for production).
Access Keys — uses explicit credentials for development or cross-account access.
- Region string
- AWS region (e.g.,
us-east-1). Falls back to environment variables if empty.
- Access Key ID password
- AWS Access Key ID — only required when using Access Key auth mode.
- Secret Access Key password
- AWS Secret Access Key — stored encrypted by Node-RED.
- Endpoint Override string
- Custom endpoint for LocalStack or SQS-compatible testing.
Security
Credentials are stored as Node-RED credentials (encrypted at rest). They are never serialised into the flow JSON in plaintext.
