Hi there, i created an account, then a project and then created s3 credentials and set it up according to the guide, i tried recreating s3 credentials, also tried making api + s3 (i thought maybe s3 creation only might be bugged) i am getting

```auto
blohsh@rack:~$ aws s3 --endpoint-url=https://gateway.storjshare.io mb s3://data
make_bucket failed: s3://data An error occurred (InvalidAccessKeyId) when calling the CreateBucket operation: The Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records.

```

Hello @MMzF,  
Welcome to the forum!

Please use `--endpoint` instead of `--endpoint-url`.

You may also fine tune the AWS CLI to use it more comfortable with Storj DCS without providing a lot of options every time:
