## Configure Diagnostics Project

In this section, you will add your AWS Credentials to the prebuilt Diagnostics Project.

### Add AWS Secret Key to Project Keystore

To interact with AWS via API, PagerDuty RBA can securely store and use AWS secrets through it's [key storage](https://docs.rundeck.com/docs/manual/key-storage/key-storage.html).
From within the project page navigation panel, click on "Project Settings" followed by "Key Storage".

Click on "Add or Upload a Key" to bring up key storage modal.

Ensure that key type is set to "Password" and paste in your AWS Secret Key under the "Enter text" input field, along with a name/alias for reference.

### Place AWS Credentials in Project Configuration

Navigate to **Project Settings -> Edit Configuration** and click on **Edit Configuration File**:

![](/images/edit-project-config.png)

Find the line in the file: **`project.aws.access_key`** and replace the value with your AWS Access Key.

Then find the line in the file **`project.aws.secret_key_path`** and replace the value with the Key Storage path copied from the previous step.

The lines in the file should now look similar to this:
```
    project.aws.access_key=AWS_ACCESS_KEY
    proejct.aws.secret_key_path=keys/project/AWS-PD-ACMECORP-GIRAN/aws-secret-key
```

Click **Save** at the bottom of the page.
