How to specify credentials when connecting to boto3 S3?

Question

On boto I used to specify my credentials when connecting to S3 in such a way:

import boto
from boto.s3.connection import Key, S3Connection
S3 = S3Connection(         


        

Answer 1

You can get a client with new session directly like below.

 s3_client = boto3.client('s3', 
                      aws_access_key_id=settings.AWS_SERVER_PUBLIC_KEY, 
                      aws_secret_access_key=settings.AWS_SERVER_SECRET_KEY, 
                      region_name=REGION_NAME
                      )
