Hello World Tutoril - Deployment

Question

I am a complete newbie to AWS, trying to figure out why the  
*sam deploy --guided*  
command from the Hello World tutorial is not working.  
  
*Error: Unable to locate credentials.*

*** AWS guide tells me that the SAM console is not configured, and refers me to step 5, where stated, you need to use the "aws configure" command. But I don't have such a command because I have AWS SAM CLI installed (according to the guide), not AWS CLI!  
Why am I being asked to solve the problem with a command from a completely different environment? Or am I not seeing something obvious?
Thanks for the clarification.

Accepted Answer

Hello.

Installing the AWS CLI is listed in the prerequisites for using AWS SAM.  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/prerequisites.html  
> An AWS account, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) credentials, and an IAM access key pair.  
> The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to configure AWS credentials.

If you want to set the authentication information without using the AWS CLI, you can also set it as a shell environment variable as shown below.  
The following commands can be used on Linux or Mac.  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-envvars.html  
```
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2
```
