Does AWS STS work with ECS?

Hi, does ECS also support creating temporary security credentials with AWS STS and Assume Role? What i want to do is address the storage from a web app running in the browser on the client side. But i don't want to share the longterm credentials for that. Instead i want to use AWS STS to create temporary credentials on server side and pass those to the client. And since it is not so easy to do a multipart upload using presigned urls i think using STS is the best way. Or do you reccomend another way to do so without sharing longterm credentials?

Unfortunately ECS does not support IAM at this time. I've taken some time to think about your problem and you may be stuck with pre-signed URLs. You could try to solve the problem by rotating keys, but you are only allowed 2 secret keys at a time.
