Creating static access keys
These are instructions for how to create static access keys for a service account.
If you don't have a service account yet, create one and assign it roles.
To create a static access key:
-
In the management console, select the folder the service account belongs to.
-
Go to the Service accounts tab.
-
Choose a service account and click the line with its name.
-
Click Create new key in the top panel.
-
Specify the key description and click Create.
-
Save the ID and private key.
Alert
After the dialog is closed, the private key value will be unavailable.
If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.
The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.
