Authenticating to AWS
If you do not already have admin access to a sandbox AWS account, your administrator may run the setups in the aws-setup folder and share a unique set of credentials with you.
You will get a special login URL for the AWS console, a password, and a separate pair of programmatic access keys.
Steps:
- Run
aws configure
from your command line - Enter these keys, a default region (us-east-1) and default output type (json).
- Type
aws sts get-caller-identity
to test your connection. You should not receive any errors.
