Set up AWS account
Before you use AWS IoT Core for the first time, complete the following tasks:
Sign up for an AWS account
To get started with AWS, you need an AWS account. There are two ways to sign up for AWS. If you want complete control over account configuration and where your content is stored, or if you have regulated workloads such as HIPAA or FedRAMP, use Sign up for AWS (advanced). If you are a new user and want to use a login you already own to sign in to AWS and create an AWS environment with preconfigured defaults in select AWS Regions, use Sign up for AWS.
Open the AWS IoT console
Most of the console-oriented topics in this section start from the AWS IoT console.
If you aren't already signed in to your AWS account, sign in, then open the AWS IoT console
