Hey! Do anyone know if it is possible/where to set session duration on the role which is assumed when running a workflow? I have a task which is running for some time (~5min) and then i get this error:

flytekit.exceptions.scopes.FlyteScopedUserException: An error occurred (ExpiredToken) when calling the AssumeRole operation: The security token included in the request is expired

and after a while it also prints this error:

Called process exited with error code: 1.  Stderr dump:\n\nb'upload failed: ../../tmp/flyte-kvw3xxto/sandbox/local_flytekit/engine_dir/error.pb to s3://<s3_bucket>/metadata/propeller/<project_name>-development-<execution_id>/n1/data/0/error.pb An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the PutObject operation: Access Denied

I trigger this workflow with a Launch Plan which specify a specific service account (not default). It was created like this:

security_context = SecurityContext(
        run_as=Identity(
            iam_role=None,
            k8s_service_account=f"my-aws-role",
        ),
    )

LaunchPlan.get_or_create(
    name="my_lp",
    workflow=my_wf,
    security_context=security_context,
)

Anyone who faced the same error before?

@icy-agent-73298, do you know how to set the session duration?

Can you check this doc https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/enable-federated-api-access-to-your-aws-resources-for-up-to-12-hours-using-iam-roles/

@tall-lock-23197 and @icy-agent-73298 thanks for your response! in the article it says default session duration is one hour - but i get this error after ~5min 🤔 I ran the command to check permissions, this is what i get:

apiVersion: v1
automountServiceAccountToken: true

Does it look OK for you, or what should i verify here? I think the error about the put request comes due to the session token expires?

That looks ok. Is there a log to indicate that an upload had succeeded before the timeout. This can also be verified if the bucket where you are uploading has any objects. If there are not objects then we can check more from permissions side Another thing to check is the role infact being used by the flyte-pods. It should ideally be the same you have mentioned in launch but would be good to check. You can get this by doing

kubectl get pod -n <project_name>-development <execuitid>-* -o yaml

and check serviceAccount field. Or else we have dig more into why there a reduced session token being given from STS.

there is lots of subfolders inside that bucket - so i guess the put permission is correct. When i run shorter tasks, < 5min, i don't get this error

thats strange , yes the AWS_ROLE_ARN that you have configured for accessing the bucket .

Let me double check the metadata folder

Ok then it definitely an issue with long running executions. We haven’t seen this in our community AFAIK . Are you using non-default IDP in your EKS cluster .

We use Flyte IDP for flytctl and all other internal services. Service Accounts are connected to IAM with OIDC.

On EKS service account it's possible to set session duration via annotation: https://github.com/aws/amazon-eks-pod-identity-webhook if your role is configured with correct max session duration as well

Thanks for sharing this @helpful-kilobyte-23008, this can then probably be synced through the cluster resource controller if enabled along with the role annotations on the service account.
