By default, the temporary credentials expire in 900 seconds. You can optionally specify a duration between 900 seconds (15 minutes) and 3600 seconds (60 minutes).

The AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user or role that runs GetCredentials must have an IAM policy attached that allows access to all necessary actions and resources.

If the DbName parameter is specified, the IAM policy must allow access to the resource dbname for the specified database name.
