synGetStsStorageToken.RdGet STS credentials for the given entity_id and permission, outputting it in the given format
synGetStsStorageToken(entity, permission, output_format=json, min_remaining_life=NULL)the entity or entity id whose credentials are being returned
one of 'read_only' or 'read_write'
one of 'json', 'boto', 'shell', 'bash', 'cmd', 'powershell'
json: the dictionary returned from the Synapse STS API including expiration
boto: a dictionary compatible with a boto session (aws_access_key_id, etc)
shell: output commands for exporting credentials appropriate for the detected shell
bash: output commands for exporting credentials into a bash shell
cmd: output commands for exporting credentials into a windows cmd shell
powershell: output commands for exporting credentials into a windows powershell
