aws route 53 domain set up

[Shai]

I haven't done this in awhile. I did remember to add AWS domain id to the "policy" which gives permissions to API calls to Route53.

But I don't remember where to get the Access Key ID or the Secret access key. I clicked on "Users" at IAM and nothing looks right there. I have several domains whose DNS is at AWS so I've done this before. I can see the access_id used on those other domains but I can't find a secret associated with that access_Id. Uggh, it's a problem when you don't do this stuff very often.

Thanks for the help.

There are some links from our docs for Route53, maybe those help depending on if you use IAM or root accounts https://docs.cloudron.io/domains/#route53-dns

The AWS UI is so hard to understand, that I also have to start fresh each time I log in.

@nebulon Thanks. Ohh, I was so close last night. Your post gave me the courage to plunge back in. The username I gave to the user who owns the policy was a really wierd choice several years ago. So when I went to the aws users page, I didn't think of exploring there. Also the ID and secret were in a file on my local machine, filed well with a good file name. Last night I just wasn't careful in looking for it. So I'm all good now.
