First you create a Policy to allow access to a single S3 bucket (IAM - Policies - Create Policy). You can use AWS Policy Generator. When accessing S3 with a client program, you must use API access key. Select the user in IAM and use 'Create access key' in the 'Security credentials' tab. How To Grant Access To Only One S3 Bucket Using AWS IAM Policy. This guide gives an overview on how to restrict an IAM user’s access to a single S3 bucket. You can now use your “Access Key ID” and “Secret Access Key” to run ObjectiveFS restricted to a single bucket. The AWS Policy Generator is a tool that enables you to create policies that control access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) products and resources. For more information about creating policies, see key concepts in Using AWS Identity and Access Management. Access Key ID and Secret Access Key are for API/CLI/SDK access. For IAM sign-in (dashboard) you need the username and password. When a new IAM user is added, the user gets username, password, access key and secret key, and the IAM URL from the IAM admin.

I need an AWS access key to allow a program, script, or developer to have programmatic access to the resources on my AWS account. How do I create a new access key?

An access key grants programmatic access to your resources. This means that the access key should be guarded as carefully as the AWS account root user sign-in credentials.

It's a best practice to do the following:

1. Create an IAM user and then define that user's permissions as narrowly as possible.
2. Create the access key under that IAM user.
