AWS Signature

Use the AWS signature to authenticate your Amazon Web Services requests. It adds authentication information to the Authorization header.

Important

ReadyAPI supports only Signature Version 4.

Tip

ReadyAPI stores the OAuth 1.0 authorization profiles in the Authorization Manager, so you can later apply them to other requests or test steps. Also, you can use such profiles to specify different authorization settings in various Environments.
