Configuring Authentication
To access data from Athena, you must authenticate the connection. You can configure the Simba Athena ODBC Driver to provide your credentials and authenticate the connection using one of the following methods:
- Using the Default Credentials Provider Chain
- Using IAM Credentials
- Using an IAM Profile
- Using an Instance Profile
- Using the Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) Credentials Provider
- Using the Azure AD Credentials Provider
- Using the Browser Azure AD Credentials Provider
- Using a Browser Plugin for a SAML Service
- Using a JSON Web Token (JWT)
- Using the Okta Service
- Using Okta MFA with Okta Verify
- Using Okta MFA with Google Authenticator
- Using Okta MFA with SMS Authentication
- Using PingFederate Service
- Using an External Credentials Service
You can set the connection properties described below in a connection string or in a
DSN (in the odbc.ini
file). Settings in the connection string take precedence over
settings in the DSN.
