- Enter the IAM username you just created, select Read or Read/Write permissions, and invite user.
- Connect to AWS Cloud9 with Second IAM User
- In an incognito session or different browser, log in second IAM user. (You cannot have two different IAM users logged in to the AWS Console at the same time. In our example in the video, we are using Google Chrome for
cloud_userand Firefox forcloud_user2.) - Navigate to AWS Cloud9.
- On the left-hand menu, select Shared with me.

- Review the Benefits of AWS Cloud9 Through Pair Programming
- Ensure both
cloud_userandcloud_user2are connected to the same AWS Cloud9 environment. - Explore cursor input tracking and highlighting in each other’s AWS Cloud9 IDE.
- Explore the group chat by selecting Collaborate on the right menu and typing messages to one another.
- Ensure both
