Terraform is an open-source, infrastructure-as-code, software tool created by HashiCorp. Users define and provide data center infrastructure using a declarative configuration language called HashiCorp Configuration Language, or optionally JSON.
To successfully use Terraform you need your access and secret keys.

Hi Emmanue

[@emmanueljijong]

Hi

[@d.s.5157]

Hi Emmanuel thank so much for this. Sorry dumb question but when you ran 'aws-vault add' command and added the profile username, can that be any name of your choosing ? Also do you happen to know how to add MFA to aws-vault. Finally is aws-vault free ?

[@emmanueljijong]

It can be any random name

[@gilbertmbah9622]

Hi Emmanuel, thank you for the great video. You use a password after you copy the access key and the secret access key in aws vault. My question are. where is that password from? And why is it used?

[@emmanueljijong]

When download and install AWS-Vault, that’s where you will create that password

[@roniclairkonda6429]

@@emmanueljijong Great job Bro. I have the same concern with that password. I used choco to install and I haven't been requested to set a password. Can you help please?
