+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Make sure the services such as Container Service, Resource Orchestration Service (ROS), and RAM have been activated. Log in to the [Container Service console](https://cs.console.aliyun.com), [ROS console](https://ros.console.aliyun.com), and [RAM console](https://ram.console.aliyun.com) to activate the corresponding services.
+
+1. Make sure that the account you will be using to create the ACK cluster has the appropriate permissions. Referring to the official Alibaba Cloud documentation about [Role authorization](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/86483.htm) and [Use the Container Service console as a RAM user](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/86484.htm) for details.
+
+1. Create an access key. For instructions, see the Alibaba Cloud documentation [Creating an AccessKey](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/53045.html).
+
+1. Create an SSH key pair. It is used to access nodes in the kubernetes cluster. For instructions, see the Alibaba Cloud documentation [Create an SSH key pair](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/doc-detail/51793.htm).
