Event information

During the event

Follow the steps in the workshop guide using your own or a Workshop Studio provided AWS account.

Workshop Studio provided AWS accounts

You may be provided with a pre-provisioned AWS account for use during the event. The IAM role that we have provided has limited permissions, which will restrict you to the services and API calls required for the event. These accounts are temporary and access will be revoked after the session, at which time all resources will be deleted.

Ways to access your Workshop Studio provided account

There are a couple ways to access the provided AWS account.

Federated login link: A one-click login to the AWS console. Use the Open AWS console link under the main side navigation AWS account access section.
AWS CLI credentials: Shell environment variables needed to make API calls using the AWS CLI. Use the Get AWS CLI credentials link under the main side navigation AWS account access section.
EC2 SSH key: SSH key pair required to access an Amazon EC2 instance provisioned for the event. Use the Get EC2 SSH key link under the main side navigation AWS account access section.
