| | | | |
| − | In this section, you will create an AWS IAM user and attach the policy you just created to the user. You will then generate the access keys for the user. Those access keys will be used to make programmatic calls to AWS services via AWS CLI or APIs. If you are familiar with AWS IAM users, you may want to attempt to complete this section before reading the step-by-step instructions.

| − | At the end of this exercise, you will not be using the access keys again. It is a security best practice to remove IAM user credentials that are not needed. After this exercise, make sure to remove the access keys only (not the AWS Console password) for the IAM user - edXProjectUser. See more IAM Best Practices.
