+# Introduction
+
+This module adds support for reading AWS IAM access credentials from EC2 instance metadata,
+to allow Prosody modules to gain role-based access to AWS services.
+
+# Configuring
+
+``` {.lua}
+modules_enabled = {
+    "aws_profile";
+}
+```
+
+There is no other configuration.
+
+# Usage in other modules
+
+Other modules can import the credentials as a shared table:
+
+``` {.lua}
+local aws_credentials = module:shared("/*/aws_profile/credentials");
+do_something(aws_credentials.access_key, aws_credentials.secret_key);
+```
+
+Note that credentials are time-limited, and will change periodically. The
+shared table will automatically be updated. If you need to know when this
+happens, you can also hook the `'aws_profile/credentials-refreshed'` event:
+
+``` {.lua}
+module:hook_global("aws_profile/credentials-refreshed", function (new_credentials)
+  -- do something with new_credentials.access_key/secret_key
+end);
+```
+
+# Compatibility
+
+Meant for use with Prosody 0.11.x, may work in older versions.
