Can I change SessionId to username when I start and end SSM Session?

[seun9su]

When session is activated using the AssumeRole function and SSM Session is connected, it is shown below.

❯ aws ssm start-session --target [instanceID]--region [region]

Starting session with SessionId: assumed-from-leapp-918e122ee2440c19b
sh-4.2$ exit
exit


Exiting session with sessionId: assumed-from-leapp-918e122ee2440c19b.

"assumed-from-leapp-918e122ee2440c19b" <- Can't I change this string to username?
For example, replace "assumed-from-leapp-918e122ee2440c19b" with "myname-918e122ee2440c19b"

With username you mean the session Alias?

With username you mean the session Alias?

The best method is to indicate the name of the IAM user who has the access key.
Because Leapp user can manipulate the session alias.
The reason why I want this feature is because when I connect to an instance with SSM Session, the Session History displaysarn:aws:sts::[accountid]:assumed-role/[role name]/assumed-from-leapp in the owner tab, so I don't know exactly who logged in.

The attached screenshot is cloudtrail log and session history.
