1.Go to Amazon Web Services console and click on the name of your account (it is located in the top right corner of the console). In the expanded drop-down list, select Security Credentials.

2.Click the Get Started with IAM Users button.

3.This will bring you to the IAM Dashboard where you can manage IAM users and their permissions such as creating new IAM users, adding IAM users to the custom groups, granting them a certain level of permissions, etc.

4. To review the IAM access keys, click on a particular user.

5. Under Security Credentials, you will see a list of Access Keys for the IAM user.

Note: You cannot retrieve the existing secret keys. You can see the secret key only once immediately after creating. So, in order to get a secret key, you will need to create a new one.

6.Click Create Access Key to create a new key. The new access keys will be generated and displayed on the screen.

Attention! If you do not write down the key or download the key file to your computer before you press "Close" or "Cancel," you will not be able to retrieve the secret key in the future. Then, you'll have to delete the keys you created and start to create new keys.
