title: Use AWS authentication for Amazon Open Search Service (AOSS)
body: <p>We have an AOSS cluster and I'd like to use regular AWS console authentication to authenticate users.  I've reviewed (and followed much of) the following:</p>
  <ul>
  <li><a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/opensearch-service/latest/developerguide/cognito-auth.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Configuring Amazon Cognito authentication for OpenSearch Dashboards</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/how-to-enable-secure-access-to-kibana-using-aws-single-sign-on/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">How to enable secure access to Kibana using AWS Single Sign-On</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/configure-saml-single-sign-on-for-kibana-with-ad-fs-on-amazon-elasticsearch-service/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Configure SAML single sign-on for Kibana with AD FS on Amazon Elasticsearch Service</a></li>
  </ul>
  <p>They all seem to use third-party SAML/AD-like services or to create/manage users separately from the AWS users/groups we've already set up.</p>
  <p>Is there a way to, in essence, use AWS console authentication for AOSS access?</p>
  <p>Many thanks!</p>
