Before adding an Amazon S3 cloud account on the NAS server, you must create an Identify and Access Management (IAM) account and add an access and a secret key.

  1. Navigate to https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/ and log in with your user name and password. Refer to https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/ for more information.
  2. When creating a user, generate the access and secret keys. Refer to http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/%20ManagingCredentials.html for more information.
  3. Save the access keys to your local machine. You will need this information when you create a cloud account on the NAS server.
  4. Open the page for the newly added IAM user account.
  5. Attach the user policy and select Amazon S3 Full Access (you may have to scroll down the page).
  6. Apply the policy.
  7. When you create an Amazon cloud account on the NAS server, provide the new account details and access and secret keys.
