Creating an Access Key (AK and SK)

When accessing the object service, a registered account must provide a pair of access keys, that is, an AK and an
SK. They are required when the object service is accessed using clients, APIs, or SDKs. The following describes AKs
and SKs:

An AK is the Access Key ID on the object service. One AK maps to only one user but one user can have multiple
AKs. The object service recognizes the users who access the system by their AKs.

An SK is the Secret Access Key on the object service. It is used to access the object service. Users generate
authentication information based on SKs and request header fields. SKs and AKs are in one-to-one mapping.

NOTICE:
If an access key is used abnormally (for example, the access key is lost or leaked) or is no longer used, you are
advised to log in to DeviceManager to delete the access key and create a new one as required. A deleted
access key cannot be restored.
