Configure AWS
Configure AWS so the Pulumi CLI can connect to AWS. If you have previously configured the AWS CLI, aws, Pulumi will respect and use your configuration settings.
If you have multiple AWS profiles set up, specify a different profile using one of the following ways:
- Set
AWS_PROFILEas an environment variable, or - Run
pulumi config set aws:profile <profilename>. See AWS Configuration for more configuration options.
If this is your first time running pulumi new or most other pulumi commands, you will be prompted to log in to the Pulumi service. The Pulumi CLI works in tandem with the Pulumi service in order to deliver a reliable experience. It is free for individual use, with features available for teams. Hitting ENTER at the prompt opens up a web browser allowing you to either sign in or sign up.
Next, we’ll create a new project.
