/**
* <p>Returns a set of temporary security credentials (consisting of an access key ID, a
* secret access key, and a security token) for a federated user. A typical use is in a proxy
* application that gets temporary security credentials on behalf of distributed applications
* inside a corporate network. You must call the <code>GetFederationToken</code> operation
* using the long-term security credentials of an IAM user. As a result, this call is
* appropriate in contexts where those credentials can be safely stored, usually in a
* server-based application. For a comparison of <code>GetFederationToken</code> with the
* other API operations that produce temporary credentials, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html">Requesting Temporary Security
* Credentials</a> and <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html#stsapi_comparison">Comparing the
* STS API operations</a> in the <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</p>
* <note>
* <p>You can create a mobile-based or browser-based app that can authenticate users using
* a web identity provider like Login with Amazon, Facebook, Google, or an OpenID
* Connect-compatible identity provider. In this case, we recommend that you use <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/cognito/">Amazon Cognito</a> or
* <code>AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity</code>. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html#api_assumerolewithwebidentity">Federation Through a Web-based Identity Provider</a> in the
* <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</p>
* </note>
* <p>You can also call <code>GetFederationToken</code> using the security credentials of an
* Amazon Web Services account root user, but we do not recommend it. Instead, we recommend that you create
* an IAM user for the purpose of the proxy application. Then attach a policy to the IAM
* user that limits federated users to only the actions and resources that they need to
* access. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/best-practices.html">IAM Best Practices</a> in the
* <i>IAM User Guide</i>. </p>
* <p>
* <b>Session duration</b>
* </p>
* <p>The temporary credentials are valid for the specified duration, from 900 seconds (15
* minutes) up to a maximum of 129,600 seconds (36 hours). The default session duration is
* 43,200 seconds (12 hours). Temporary credentials that are obtained by using Amazon Web Services account
* root user credentials have a maximum duration of 3,600 seconds (1 hour).</p>
* <p>
* <b>Permissions</b>
* </p>
* <p>You can use the temporary credentials created by <code>GetFederationToken</code> in any
* Amazon Web Services service except the following:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>
* <p>You cannot call any IAM operations using the CLI or the Amazon Web Services API. </p>
* </li>
* <li>
* <p>You cannot call any STS operations except <code>GetCallerIdentity</code>.</p>
* </li>
* </ul>
* <p>You must pass an inline or managed <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/access_policies.html#policies_session">session policy</a> to
* this operation. You can pass a single JSON policy document to use as an inline session
* policy. You can also specify up to 10 managed policies to use as managed session policies.
* The plaintext that you use for both inline and managed session policies can't exceed 2,048
* characters.</p>
* <p>Though the session policy parameters are optional, if you do not pass a policy, then the
* resulting federated user session has no permissions. When you pass session policies, the
* session permissions are the intersection of the IAM user policies and the session
* policies that you pass. This gives you a way to further restrict the permissions for a
* federated user. You cannot use session policies to grant more permissions than those that
* are defined in the permissions policy of the IAM user. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/access_policies.html#policies_session">Session
* Policies</a> in the <i>IAM User Guide</i>. For information about
* using <code>GetFederationToken</code> to create temporary security credentials, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html#api_getfederationtoken">GetFederationToken—Federation Through a Custom Identity Broker</a>. </p>
* <p>You can use the credentials to access a resource that has a resource-based policy. If
* that policy specifically references the federated user session in the
* <code>Principal</code> element of the policy, the session has the permissions allowed by
* the policy. These permissions are granted in addition to the permissions granted by the
* session policies.</p>
* <p>
* <b>Tags</b>
* </p>
* <p>(Optional) You can pass tag key-value pairs to your session. These are called session
* tags. For more information about session tags, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_session-tags.html">Passing Session Tags in STS</a> in the
* <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</p>

* the <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</p>
* <p>An administrator must grant you the permissions necessary to pass session tags. The
* administrator can also create granular permissions to allow you to pass only specific
* session tags. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/tutorial_attribute-based-access-control.html">Tutorial: Using
* Tags for Attribute-Based Access Control</a> in the
* <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</p>
* <p>Tag key–value pairs are not case sensitive, but case is preserved. This means that you
* cannot have separate <code>Department</code> and <code>department</code> tag keys.
* Assume that the user that you are federating has the
* <code>Department</code>=<code>Marketing</code> tag and you pass the
* <code>department</code>=<code>engineering</code> session tag.
* <code>Department</code> and <code>department</code> are not saved as separate tags,
* and the session tag passed in the request takes precedence over the user tag.</p>
* @example
* Use a bare-bones client and the command you need to make an API call.
* ```javascript
* import { STSClient, GetFederationTokenCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-sts"; // ES Modules import
* // const { STSClient, GetFederationTokenCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-sts"); // CommonJS import
* const client = new STSClient(config);
* const command = new GetFederationTokenCommand(input);
* const response = await client.send(command);
* ```
*
* @see {@link GetFederationTokenCommandInput} for command's `input` shape.
* @see {@link GetFederationTokenCommandOutput} for command's `response` shape.
* @see {@link STSClientResolvedConfig | config} for command's `input` shape.
