Key Bindings

Cloudlens uses k9s like shortcuts for navigation. Listed below are few of the shortcuts:

Action Command
Show active keyboard mnemonics and help ?
To bail out of cloudlens :q , ctrl-c
Bails out of view/command/filter mode esc
To view and switch to another AWS Service :S3/EC2/VPC⏎
To view and switch to another GCP Service :storage/vm/disk⏎

Note

Cloudlens reads your ~/.aws/config file, but it does not store or send your access and secret key anywhere. The access and secret key is used only to securely connect to AWS API via AWS SDK.

Since cloudlens is in readonly mode, we recommend you create an access and secret key that only has readonly permissions to the AWS services.
