Access keys are random tokens that serve as a username to grant access to a Spaces bucket.
While they allow people or programs to connect to buckets with third-party clients and the API, they do not provide access to the control panel or other DigitalOcean resources.
To connect to your DigitalOcean resources this way, pair your access key with a secret key. Then, use the access key to sign requests that you send.
Users who connect with access keys can create, destroy, read, and write to all of the buckets for the account. However, the privileges granted by Spaces access keys do not provide access to the control panel and do not extend to other DigitalOcean resources.
