Create an Admin IAM User
- Go to AWS Console → IAM → Users → Create user
- Enter a username (e.g.,
caution-admin) - Click Next, then select "Attach policies directly"
- Search for and select
AdministratorAccess - Click Next, then Create user
- Select the user → Security credentials → Create access key
- Choose "Command Line Interface (CLI)", confirm, and save the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key
So the structure would be:
Prerequisites
- AWS root or admin credentials...
- AWS Organizations enabled...
- AWS CLI...
- OpenTofu or Terraform...
