AccessKey - Amazon Lightsail

AccessKey

Describes an access key for an Amazon Lightsail bucket.

Access keys grant full programmatic access to the specified bucket and its objects. You can have a maximum of two access keys per bucket. Use the CreateBucketAccessKey action to create an access key for a specific bucket. For more information about access keys, see Creating access keys for a bucket in Amazon Lightsail in the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.

Important

The secretAccessKey value is returned only in response to the CreateBucketAccessKey action. You can get a secret access key only when you first create an access key; you cannot get the secret access key later. If you lose the secret access key, you must create a new access key.
