Step 3 – Create IAM User

While still in the IAM console, select Users on the left hand side of the page and then click on Add user.

Step 3.1 – User Properties

In the create user wizard:

• Give the user a name
• Check the Programmatic access checkbox and make sure that AWS Management Console access is unchecked

Click on Next: Permissions

Step 3.2 – Permissions

On the Permissions step, select Attach existing policies directly. In the list of policies directly below, find the policy we created in the previous step and check the checkbox next to it.

Click on Next: Tags and then click on Next: Review on the screen that follows. Make sure everything is correct and click on Create user.

Step 3.3 – Download Credentials

Once you’ve clicked on Create user you’ll see a screen that will allow you to download your credentials as a CSV file.

Download them and keep them in a safe place. We will need them for configuring Media Cloud.
