I'm trying to use AWS S3 to upload files, but right now I need to put in my credentials for my account. I'm unsure how to do this, as other tutorials said to locate a .aws
folder and find a file called credentials
, but I cannot find this folder, nor the file, anywhere. What do I need to install, if anything, that will help me out? Am I missing something?
Yes, I already have my access key ID and my secret access key. I'm just not sure where to go from here.
I am using a Mac, if that helps.
To access aws from your machine, you have to install aws cli in your machine. The below link helps you to install aws cli. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-cliv2-mac.html
Once you completed the installation, you have to configure the aws credentials using `$aws configure
That's it. Try that :)
