Connect to the instance using SSH. You may refer to the instructions in the third exercise for connecting
to the instance.
Open the credentials.csv file that you downloaded earlier. Find the entry for edXProjectUser, and note
the values for Access Key Id and Secret Access Key.
On the instance terminal, type the below command.

aws configure

Follow the prompts on the screen and paste in the values for Access Key Id and Secret Access Key.
For Region, type us-west-2.
For Default output format, press ENTER.
You have now configured the AWS CLI so that any CLI calls will operate with the credentials of the AWS IAM user edXProjectUser.
Now query the information about the Amazon EC2 instances in your account. Type the command below.

aws ec2 describe-instances

You should see a JSON output with all the information of the Amazon EC2 instances in your account.
This means that you were able to successfully execute the AWS CLI command with the permissions attached
to the edXProjectUser.
