Amazon S3 Setup
Just remember, signing up for Amazon S3 is a two-step process.
First you should create an Amazon account. Second you have to sign-up for S3 service.
If you ever bought a book or any other goods on Amazon you should have that account already and you
can safely skip the first step and move to the second.
How to create an Amazon account
Go to the Amazon website and click the link at the very top right corner of the screen
This will take you to the next screen, where you can create a new account or use your existing Amazon account.
This will take you to the next step, where you confirm your email and specify your password
This will take you to the next step where you have to fill in your address information and accept a license agreement.
Then you’ll need to get through Identity Verification by Telephone. This will not take longer than a minute or two. Just enter you real telephone number and you’ll receive a call. You’ll be asked to enter pin code displayed on your monitor.
As soon as you finish this stage you’ll be forwarded to the last step with email verification.
After that you’ll need to activate your account by following the link in the email send to you by Amazon. Follow the link and you will see your “Access Credentials”.
The data you will need in future is:
- Access Key ID
- Secret Access Key
By now you are successfully signed-up for Amazon S3 service.
