Set AWS credentials in boto config file

Question

How do I set my AWS credentials in the boto config file?

Answer 1

Go to your boto config file, and add the following lines

[profile name_goes_here]
aws_access_key_id = <access key for this profile>
aws_secret_access_key = <secret key for this profile>

[Credentials]
aws_access_key_id = <your default access key>
aws_secret_access_key = <your default secret key>
