How do I get my AWS Access Key and Secret Key?

Log in to the AWS Management Console, navigate to IAM (Identity and Access Management), and create a user with programmatic access. Ensure this user has S3 permissions (e.g., `AmazonS3FullAccess`). You will receive an Access Key ID and a Secret Access Key.

Can I upload large files using this integration?

The `put_object` tool handles standard REST uploads and is best suited for small to medium-sized files or JSON data. For very large files, standard AWS tools utilizing Multipart Uploads are recommended.

How do I ensure my buckets are secure?

You can use the `get_bucket_policy` and `get_bucket_acl` tools to audit the current access controls applied to any of your buckets directly from the chat.
