### 2. Retrieve your Bucket credentials

Now that your bucket is created, we'll need to get the credentials required to access it.

Like everything with Filebase (and we like this!) it's super easy.

- Simply go to your Settings: [https://console.filebase.com/users/edit](https://console.filebase.com/users/edit?ref=simplebackups) and copy your **Access Key** and **Secret**.
