How Do I Obtain an Access Key (AK/SK)?

If you have a password for logging in to the management console, log in to the console, move the pointer to the username in the upper right corner and select My Credentials from the drop-down list. Choose Access Keys in the left navigation pane and you can view the access key ID (AK) in the access key list. You can obtain the secret access key (SK) from the downloaded .csv file. For more information, see Access Keys.
If you do not a password for logging in to the management console, request the administrator to create an access key for you on the IAM console. For more information, see Managing Access Keys for an IAM User.
