I've been given access to an aws account and asked to extract all the data stored on it so that it can be deleted. My issue is that I don't have a pem key because I didn't create the instance, the only thing I have is the email and password of the aws account itself.
I know there is data stored on an ec2 instance and on s3
I've tried logging in using the browser-based ssh that is an option when you select connect for an instance, but I get the error There was a problem setting up the instance connection and a retry button but retrying does nothing
I don't have access to the pem key because I didn't set up the instance, and the person that set up the instance can't add me to it
Everything I try to connect doesn't work because I'm missing the Pem key.
Any ideas? or any ideas how to pull the data from a server (that wasn't set up with version control so i can't do that either) without being able to ssh into it?
