Connect AWS with an IAM access key.
Where to create it
AWS IAM → Users → Security credentials → Create access key (programmatic access). Read-only is fine to start — you can attach a read-only policy and widen it later.
What you enter
- Access key ID — starts with
AKIA…. - Secret access key.
- Session token — optional, only for temporary STS credentials.
Permissions
AWS has no read/write toggle in the app. What the key can do is set by its IAM policy — grant read-only or read/write there.
Regions
AWS lists resources per region. Star the regions you use in Manage regions so they show in the region bar and are scanned in the background.
Note
Creating servers isn't supported for AWS in-app yet — create them in the AWS console; managing existing ones works here.
