i would like to get my aws account id programmatically when running an application on AWS EKS on Fargate.

On EC2 instances I can simply call http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document but I can not on fargate.

Can I get the account id without using aws sts get-caller-identity?

Thanks for your help.

Calling the task metadata endpoint returns detailed data, including the task arn, which contains the account id.

I don't know if there is a better way of getting this information.
