key id and secret access key

Hello,

I think the IAM policy is a better option for your use case.

Thanks

To create an AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key with limited permissions for a specific S3 bucket, follow these summarized steps:

1. Create a New IAM User:

   • Sign in to the AWS Management Console and navigate to the IAM console.
   • Choose Users > Add user.
   • Enter a user name and select Programmatic access.
   • Click Next: Permissions.

2. Attach Policy Directly or Add to Group:

   • For direct policy attachment, choose Attach existing policies directly > Create policy. Use the JSON editor to specify permissions for viewing and uploading to your bucket. Replace YOUR_BUCKET_NAME with your actual bucket name in the policy:

     {
         "Version": "2012-10-17",
         "Statement": [
             {
                 "Effect": "Allow",
                 "Action": [
                     "s3:ListBucket",
                     "s3:GetObject",
                     "s3:PutObject",
                     "s3:PutObjectAcl"
                 ],
                 "Resource": [
                     "arn:aws:s3:::YOUR_BUCKET_NAME",
                     "arn:aws:s3:::YOUR_BUCKET_NAME/*"
                 ]
             }
         ]
     }

   • Alternatively, add the user to a group that already has the desired permissions.

3. Review and Create User:

   • After attaching the policy, proceed through Next: Tags, Next: Review, and finally click Create user.

4. Access Key and Secret:

   • Once the user is created, you'll be shown the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. Make sure to save these securely.
