To begin using the S3 API, you first need to obtain a set of "EC2 Credentials". This is a set of credentials formatted in the same way as Amazon's credentials. You can download your EC2 Credentials by going here (https://cloud.cybera.ca/project/api_access/) and clicking "Download EC2 View Credentials". This will trigger a zip file to be downloaded to your workstation.
Using Unzip the file and look inside the ec2rc.sh
file using a text editor of your choice. Inside this file, you will see a bunch of variables, including:
Code Block |
---|
export EC2_ACCESS_KEY=foo
export EC2_SECRET_KEY=bar |
These are your EC2 credentials.
'll want to create a new file (eg. s3cred.sh) with the following details:
Code Block |
---|
export |
Note |
Most Amazon applications and libraries use AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID instead of EC2_ACCESS_KEY and =foo export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYinstead of EC2_SECRET_KEY =bar |
Alternatively you can find these credentials via the OpenStack CLI tools with the command openstack ec2 credentials list
.
