Creating new AWS keys

Create new access keys in AWS console. Note that you can only have two sets of keys at a time.

Navigate to the IAM console by clicking your user name in the dropdown menu in the banner at the top of the page. Then select the "Security Credentials" option. If a popup appears, select "Continue to Security Credentials".

In IAM console, click "Access Keys," "Create Access Keys," then "Download Credentials."

Configuring AWS CLI

While in your virtual environment (workon YourVirtualEnvironmentName), install awscli.

pip install awscli

Run aws configure. Enter the codes given in the credentials.csv download file, your region (us-west-2 or similar) and output (json or whichever you prefer). Key info is then stored in ~/.aws.

To test that everything is configured correctly, run this.

aws s3 ls s3://elections.thelensnola.org
