## IAM AWS - Create a User
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Objectives
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As you probably know at this point, it's not recommended to work with the root account in AWS. For this reason you are going to create a new account which you'll use regularly as the admin account.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Create a user with password credentials
|
||
|
|
2. Add the newly created user to a group called "admin" and attach to it the policy called "Administrator Access"
|
||
|
|
3. Make sure the user has a tag called with the key `Role` and the value `DevOps`
|
||
|
|
|
||
