Expected Behavior

Current Behavior

when I use dvc push I get the error message

Collecting                                                                  |0.00 [00:00,    ?entry/s]
Pushing
ERROR: unexpected error - Missing Dependency: Using the login credential provider requires an additional dependency. You will need to pip install "botocore[crt]" before proceeding.

Installing above dependency doesn't work

But if I use Iam credentials access id and secret key and configure using aws configure and then use dvc push it works.

Reproduction Steps

• Configure dvc add and dvc remote i.e s3 bucket

• Do no configure aws cli, just use aws login and then use dvc push

• you will find error as mentioned above.

Hi @jatinmehrotra, I'm not familiar with dvc, but if it's capable of transferring objects to S3 and based on your error message, I suspect it depends on boto3 or botocore under the hood. In that case, dvc is likely not bundling the awscrt dependency, which is optional in general but required when using login credentials. I would open an issue in the dvc repository.
