  3. Click OK and save the access key file. The access key file will be saved to the default download location in your browser. Open the credentials.csv file to view Access Key Id and Secret Access Key.
    • Up to two access keys can be created for each user.
    • For security purposes, access keys are automatically downloaded only when they are generated for the first time and cannot be obtained from the console later. Keep them properly.
