How Do I Create an AK/SK Pair for an Account?

Scenarios

An access key comprises an access key ID (AK) and secret access key (SK). It is used as a long-term identity credential to sign your requests for the cloud platform APIs. Like a user name and password, you must use both the AK and SK together to authenticate your requests. Manage your access keys as securely as you do your user name and password.

When creating a migration task, you need to enter an AK/SK pair for authentication. If you use an account for migration, you can create an AK/SK pair for the account by referring to Access Keys.

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