1. Click on Account Details copy all details from there.
2. Go to C:\Users\Techino\.aws\credentials or search for credentials in C drive. Then paste the copied details.
3. Go to cmd and type “aws configure”
4. Now paste all the details line by line from the account details like
   a. Access Key
   b. Secret Access Key
   c. Default region name[ get it from console]
   d. Output : If not specified, json is used as the default. Apart from json format yaml, yaml-stream, text, table formats are also supported.

   This gives the list of buckets used.
