> The Kinesis consumer docs [here](https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.5/dev/connectors/kinesis.html#kinesis-consumer) demonstrate providing credentials by explicitly supplying the AWS Access ID and Key.
> The always preferred approach for AWS, unless running locally, is to automatically fetch the shipped credentials from the AWS environment.
> That is actually the default behaviour of the Kinesis consumer, so the docs should demonstrate that more clearly.
