## Overview

ConsoleMe is a web service that makes AWS IAM permissions and credential management easier for end-users and cloud
administrators.

ConsoleMe provides [**numerous
ways**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/feature-videos/credentials/aws-console-login) to log in to the AWS Console.

An [**IAM Self-Service
Wizard**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/feature-videos/policy-management/self-service-iam-wizard) lets users
request IAM permissions in plain English. Cross-account resource policies will be automatically generated, and can be
applied with a single click for certain resource types.

[Weep](https://github.com/Netflix/weep) (ConsoleMe’s CLI) supports [**5 different
ways**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/weep-cli/cli) of serving AWS credentials locally.

Cloud administrators can [**create/clone IAM
roles**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/feature-videos/policy-management/role-creation-and-cloning) and natively [**manage
IAM roles, users, inline/managed policies, S3 Buckets, SQS queues, and SNS
topics**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/feature-videos/policy-management/policy-editor-for-iam-sqs-sns-and-s3)
across hundreds of accounts in a single interface.

Users can access most of your cloud resources in the AWS Console with a [**single
click**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/feature-videos/policy-management/multi-account-policies-management). Cloud
administrators can configure ConsoleMe to authenticate users through [**ALB
Authentication**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/configuration/authentication-and-authorization/alb-auth),
[**OIDC/OAuth2**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/configuration/authentication-and-authorization/oidc-oauth2-okta),
or [**SAML**](https://hawkins.gitbook.io/consoleme/configuration/authentication-and-authorization/saml-auth0).
