    I use the SQLBackupAndFTP tool to transfer the backup from the local server to the S3 backut

    during the S3 connection phase, the tool asks me ACESS KEY, SECRET KEY

    Who can how I can get these items back

    Pretty sure you would get those from your S3 server settings (AWS if I remember right).

    Worst case, you should be able to generate new ones without any problems (if I remember right) as they are just used to access the S3 server, so if you generate new ones from the same S3 server (as long as you don't remove the old ones) you should have no issues.

    The above is all just my opinion on what you should do. 
    As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it.  Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!
    I recommend you NEVER run "random code" you found online on any system you care about UNLESS you understand and can verify the code OR you don't care if the code trashes your system.

    Yes, Mr. Brian Gale is right.

    Also, you can check the following tutorial on how to set the connection https://sqlbackupandftp.com/blog/amazon-s3-access-policy-to-minimum-permission
