How Do I Obtain an AK/SK Pair for a Huawei Cloud Account?

An access key comprises an access key ID (AK) and secret access key (SK). It is used as long-term identity credentials to sign your requests for Huawei Cloud APIs. AK is used together with SK to sign requests cryptographically, ensuring that the requests are secret, complete, and correct.

You need to provide an AK/SK pair when using SMS. To learn how to obtain an AK/SK pair for your Huawei Cloud account, see Access Keys.

During the migration, do not delete the AK/SK pair, or the migration will fail.
