If you have working access keys, you can generate a console URL that has the same permission as your keys. Check out the python script here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_pr...

It will spit out a URL you can use to sign into the console using the keys instead of a user account. Maybe this will help you in the meantime while you are trying to fix the root problem. Good luck!

One other thought is to try using rclone to copy all of your data to local storage or to another provider while you still have access using keys.

Yeah I'm basically running aws s3 sync on the two most important buckets first (like 0.5T) and then trying to figure out how to deal with support. It is so anxiety-inducing to not know when this access might just get lost so I'm frantically backing up this now at 25th hour. about to get an 8tb hard drive to just have something to persist this in this fog of war
