# AWS Secrets Manager access credentials

You'll need the access keys for IAM user / root user, which has privilege to **Read\&Write** into the Secrets Manager in the chosen region.

Please follow [Manage access keys for IAM users - AWS Identity and Access Management](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html) if you are not familiar with AWS access keys.

All you need for DDHub Client GW are:

* `Access Key ID`
* `SECRET ACCESS KEY`
* `Region` for the secrets manager

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.energyweb.org/energy-solutions/digital-spine-by-energy-web/component-guides/ddhub-client-gateway/deployment-guide/preparing-to-set-up-a-client-gateway/obtaining-key-vault-access-credentials/aws-secrets-manager-access-credentials.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
