Device Farm - Appium Web Node - is it possible to grant access to a secret in Secrets Manager?

Question

I've created an appium test for our web app, and I'm running it on ios devices in device farm. I would like to use the javascript aws-sdk to connect to secrets manager, where i'll store test user credentials. Documentation makes it seem like private devices could leverage service-linked roles to do this, I'm not clear whether or not this could be done with devices from the public pool. Is there a way that I could grant permissions to device farm to access a specific secret in secrets manager?

```
const AWS = require('aws-sdk');
const lambda = new AWS.Lambda({ region: 'your-region' });

async function getSecret() {
    const params = {
        FunctionName: 'YourLambdaFunctionName',
        InvocationType: 'RequestResponse',
    };
    try {
        const result = await lambda.invoke(params).promise();
        return JSON.parse(result.Payload.toString());
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error getting secret:', error);
        throw error;
    }
}

// Use this in your test
(async () => {
    const secret = await getSecret();
    // Use secret here
})();
```
