Create access key for IAM user
Since the IAM account is ready, let's create an access key now
Step:
- Logon as IAM user
- open IAM console link: console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/h…
- Select user on the left menu and click user name you want to creat access key
- Select "Security credentials" tab, and click "Create Access Key"
- Keep above access key ID and access key in local, since we only have one opportunity to see these information on aws portal
- open commond line tool, then type
aws configure, it will raise some below option, then type the value you just created:
$ aws configure
