Accessing s3 using credentials stored in laptop in .aws folder through Java

Question

I am trying to access to s3 using Java. the credentials are stored in my laptop, but when i specify the credentials in code, its showing that the key doesn't exist.

Error:The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records. (Service: S3, Status Code: 403, Request ID: ,,,,,,)
**Code written:**
Region region = Region.US_EAST_1;

String bucketname="x";
String keyname="y";
String Accesskey="z";
String Secretkey="t";

AwsBasicCredentials credentials=AwsBasicCredentials.create(Accesskey,Secretkey);
AwsCredentialsProvider provider = StaticCredentialsProvider.create(credentials);

S3Client client = S3Client.builder().region(region)
            .credentialsProvider(provider)
            .build();

GetObjectRequest objectRequest = GetObjectRequest.builder()
        .bucket(bucketname)
        .key(keyname)
        .build();

Answer

Hi,

Have a look at the Java default credentials chain to see all possible ways to supply credentials to the AWS Java SDK: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/latest/developer-guide/credentials-chain.html

I personally use the env variables `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID `and` AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` to avoid storing my credentials in my source code, which is a bad practice.

Best,

Didier
