Creating a new user on aws

To create a new user on AWS, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Log in to the AWS Management Console

Go to the AWS website and sign in to the AWS Management Console using your root account credentials.

Step 2: Navigate to the IAM Dashboard

In the top-level menu, click on "Services" and then select "IAM" from the list of available services.

Step 3: Create a New User

In the IAM dashboard, click on "Users" in the left-hand menu and then click on "Create user".

Step 4: Enter User Details

Enter the following details for the new user:

• User name: Enter a unique name for the new user.
• Email: Enter the email address for the new user.
• Password: Enter a strong password for the new user.
• Access type: Choose "Programmatic access" if the user will be accessing AWS services programmatically, or "AWS Management Console access" if the user will be accessing AWS services through the console.

Step 5: Add Permissions

You can add permissions to the new user by attaching an IAM policy or creating a new policy. You can also choose to add the user to an existing group.

Step 6: Review and Create

Review the user details and permissions, and then click "Create user" to create the new user.

Step 7: Download the CSV File

After creating the new user, you will be prompted to download a CSV file that contains the user's access key ID and secret access key. You should download this file and store it securely, as it will be used to authenticate the user.

Step 8: Verify the User

Verify that the new user has been created successfully by logging in to the AWS Management Console with the new user's credentials.

Additional Tips

• Make sure to store the access key ID and secret access key securely, as they can be used to access your AWS resources.
• Consider creating a new IAM group and adding the new user to it, to simplify permission management.
• You can also use AWS CloudFormation or AWS CLI to create new users and manage permissions programmatically.
