Trying to connect my Kiro account with the AmazonQ extension in VSCode, links to wrong user

0

Hi all,

When signing into AmazonQ with my Kiro account, it automatically keeps signing into a different AWSBuilder account (same email, though the one with the pro subscription is a "log in with google" account) - I have fully purged AmazonQ and amazon webservices from my PC to start again, and it still links with my aws builder account without the pro subscription.

I've tried deleting the non-pro account (nothing happens after I hit delete?) and even changed the email address in awsbuilder, but it remains the same in Kiro. I am so utterly lost, and do not want to buy ANOTHER pro subscription of course when I have one unused right there.

I feel like I am missing something.. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I beliebed on eof th reasons was Amazon Q Developer and Kiro share identity tokens through AWS Builder ID, and the VS Code extension automatically binds to the most recently cached Builder ID credential, even if it’s not the one with your Pro subscription.
