Creating S3 Credentials for middleware
2 min
To create an S3 Connection in middleware you must have an aws Access Key and a secret access key. We recommend using the IAM interface in AWS to configure a user with an access key with the appropriate permissions, however it is possible to use a root access/secret access key.
For demonstration and simplicity purposes on how to create an access key and secret access key, the below instructions are using a root account.
- In the IAM Panel click "Create Access Key".
- Note down the "Access Key" and "Secret access key" for later use as seen below. You can also download the record as a csv file.
