[ENHANCEMENT] SNS: Support session_name and tags fields in sigv4 configuration for STS AssumeRole, enabling per-caller identity attribution and AWS cost allocation session tags.

Description

Upgrades github.com/prometheus/sigv4 from v0.4.1 to v0.5.0 and integrates the new SessionName and Tags fields from the sigv4 configuration into the SNS notifier's STS AssumeRole flow.

Changes

  • go.mod: Bump sigv4 dependency to v0.5.0
  • notify/sns/sns.go: Thread SessionName (maps to AWS RoleSessionName) and Tags (maps to STS session tags) through to stscreds.AssumeRoleProvider
  • docs/configuration.md: Document the new session_name and tags configuration options

Configuration Example

sns_configs:
  - sigv4:
      region: us-east-1
      role_arn: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/alertmanager
      session_name: alertmanager-prod
      tags:
        team: observability
        environment: production
        cost-center: "12345"

Both fields require role_arn to be set. This mirrors the capability from prometheus/sigv4#76, enabling AWS billing chargeback by team/tenant/environment for SNS notifications through assumed roles.

Backward compatible - existing configurations continue to work unchanged.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The SNS receiver adds optional STS session names and session tags to SigV4 role assumption. Validation enforces AWS constraints. Documentation and AWS SDK and Prometheus dependencies are updated.

Changes

SNS STS session options

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and SDK support
docs/configuration.md, notify/sns/config.go, notify/sns/config_test.go, go.mod
The SigV4 configuration documents session_name and tags. Validation checks role dependencies, tag count, and reserved prefixes. Tests cover valid and invalid configurations. AWS SDK and Prometheus dependencies are updated.
SNS AssumeRole wiring
notify/sns/sns.go
The SNS client sets RoleSessionName and converts configured tags into STS tag entries during role assumption.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to caef9

The PR adds optional session names and tags to SNS role assumptions, but invalid tag inputs may still cause runtime AssumeRole failures and the documentation does not state the required sts:TagSession permission. Tag-enabled deployments therefore need validation and IAM follow-up before this change is fully merge-ready.

- Around line 78-80: Update SigV4Config.Validate and SNSConfig.Validate to
enforce all AWS STS session-tag constraints for both tag keys and values:
validate allowed characters, reject the reserved aws: prefix wherever required,
and use rune-based length checks rather than byte lengths while preserving
tag-count validation. Add boundary tests covering valid Unicode values and
invalid characters, prefixes, and length limits.

Why is this feature needed? I don't see the use case described anywhere.

Thanks @SoloJacobs

This feature targets two primary enterprise scenarios:

  1. Audit tracing: session_name provides stable session identifiers in CloudTrail when Alertmanager assumes a shared IAM role, avoiding random auto‑generated session names for better traceability.
  2. Cost allocation & IAM condition checks: STS session tags populate AWS billing CUR records, enabling cost charge‑back for SNS publish actions across teams/environments. They can also be used in IAM trust‑policy condition rules.
