-      - The duration, in seconds, of the role session. The value can range from 900 seconds (15 minutes) to 43200 seconds (12 hours).
-      - The max depends on the IAM role's sessions duration setting.
-      - By default, the value is set to 3600 seconds.

-notes:
-  - In order to use the assumed role in a following playbook task you must pass the I(access_key),
-    I(secret_key) and I(session_token) parameters to modules that should use the assumed credentials.
