I have made my Amazon S3 bucket public, by going to its Permissions tab, and setting public access to everyone:
List objects
Write objects
List bucket permissions
Write bucket permissions
There is now an orange "Public" label on the bucket.
But when I go into the bucket, click on one of the images stored there, and click on the Link it provides, I get Access Denied. The link looks like this:
https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/[bucket-name]/images/36d03456fcfaa06061f.jpg
Why is it still unavailable despite setting the bucket's permissions to public?
You either need to set Object Level Permissions on each object that you want to be available to the internet as Read Object.
or, you can use Bucket Policies to make this more widely permissioned, and not worry about resetting the permissions on each upload:

}
]

I have created an S3 bucket which we will call mytest-bucket where I am trying to grant access to the bucket and its objects to an IAM user at a different company, not within my organization. The user, which we call Bob has given me their account ID, IAM username, and canonical ID. I've done the following to attempt to grant Bob access:
1) I have set the bucket policy for mytest-bucket as such:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": [
"arn:aws:iam::111111111111:root",
"arn:aws:iam::111111111111:user/Bob"
]
},
"Action": [
"s3:*",
"s3:ListBucket",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:GetObjectAcl",
"s3:PutObject",
"s3:PutObjectAcl"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::mytest-bucket",
"arn:aws:s3:::mytest-bucket/*"
]
}
]
}
2) I have set my Individual Block Public Access settings for this bucket to the following:
3) I have also granted List, Write ACL permissions to the External account using the Canonical ID provided, as well as Read, Write Bucket ACL permissions. For object ownership, I have ACLs are enabled and can be used to grand access to this bucket and its objects.
Yet, still, Bob is unable to both 1) see the bucket listed under their account, 2) access any objects or the bucket itself due to Access Denied error.
Is there something I can change in the above configuration to provide Bob access to this one bucket and it's objects?
How can I help them get access?
Edit: Bob will not be uploading objects, but only reading and downloading objects from this bucket.
You say that "bob is unable to see the bucket listed under their account". This is normal -- the bucket does not belong to his account, so it will not be listed when he uses the S3 management console. However, Bob should be able to access it when using the AWS CLI, such as:
aws s3 ls s3://mytest-bucket
If Bob really wants to see it in the console, he can 'cheat' by using a URL that will show the bucket, but Bob would need to paste the URL directly rather than going through the bucket hierarchy. To demonstrate, here is a URL that would normally show a bucket:
https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/s3/buckets/mytest-bucket
You can change the bucket name at the end to 'jump' directly to a desired bucket.
I wanted to get huge amount of data from another organization to my organization.
I created an s3 bucket with name as: srikanth-poc-can-be-deleted.
This bucket under the access column is showing as "Public". All my other buckets are showing it as "Bucket and objects not public". (i.e. I disabled the option "Block All public access" under "Block Public access"). I also set up below policy.
and defined below bucket policy.
Question: Under the bucket, I have one folder: 'upload_here' and I am getting this folder URL so that any body can upload the files under this folder. However, its not working as expected. When I enter the folder URL in the browser, an empty file with the name of the folder is downloading and nothing happening. I was expecting it to open the folder, so that others could place their files in there. Could you please let me know what is the issue?

If you want to copy data in Amazon S3 between AWS Accounts, you should use one of these methods below. They will ensure that your buckets, and your data, are kept private at all times.
Using source credentials
If you are using credentials from the source account:
Grant the IAM User permission to read from the source bucket and write to the destination bucket
Add a Bucket Policy on the destination bucket in the other account that grants access to the IAM User from the source account (similar to your policy above, but specifying the source IAM User as the Principal)
In the destination bucket, make sure ACLs are disabled so that the destination account 'owns' the objects
Use the AWS CLI to copy the objects, using the IAM User credentials
Using destination credentials
If you are using credentials from the destination account:
Grant the IAM User permission to read from the source bucket and write to the destination bucket
Add a Bucket Policy on the source bucket that grants access to the IAM User from the destination account (similar to your policy above, but specifying the destination IAM User as the Principal)
Use the AWS CLI to copy the objects, using the IAM User credentials
I wish to have a bucket that only one IAM user could access using the AWS Console, list its content and access object files inside it.
So, I have created the IAM user, the bucket itself, and later:
bucket policy as follow:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "statement1",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "arn:aws:iam::0000000:user/dave"
},
"Action": [
"s3:GetBucketLocation",
"s3:ListBucket"
],
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::testbucket1234"
},
{
"Sid": "statement2",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "arn:aws:iam::0000000:user/dave"
},
"Action": "s3:GetObject",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::testbucket1234/*"
}
]
}
And also a inline policy attached to my user's group, as follow:
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor0",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"s3:*Object",
"s3:PutObject"
],
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::testbucket1234/*"
},
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor1",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": "s3:ListAllMyBuckets",
"Resource": "*"
}
]
}
Now: I can list my buckets, access the desired bucket, list its content (so far so good). The problem is when I try to open one file object inside the bucket and I get "access denied" error. If I turn the object public, I can access it, but I can also access it using other IAM accounts, and that is not the intention. I want to access the bucket, list its contents and access objects only by usage of this specific IAM account. What am I doing wrong? How can I reach this goal? Thanks in advance.
By default, no IAM User can access any bucket. It is only by granting permissions to users that they can access resources.
However, many people tend to grant Amazon S3 permissions for all buckets, at least for Administrators. This then makes it difficult to remove permissions so that a bucket can only be accessed by one user. While it can be done with Deny policies, such policies are difficult to craft correctly.
For situations where specific data should only be accessed by one user, or a specific group of users (eg HR staff), I would recommend that you create a separate AWS Account and only grant permission to specific IAM Users or IAM Groups via a Bucket Policy (which works fine cross-account). This way, any generic policies that grant access to "all buckets" will not apply to buckets in this separate account.
Update: Accessing private objects
Expanding on what is mentioned in the comments below, a private object in Amazon S3 can be accessed by an authorized user. However, when accessing the object, it is necessary to identify who is accessing the object and their identity must be proved. This can be done in one of several ways:
In the Amazon S3 management console, use the Open command (in the Actions menu). This will open the object using a pre-signed URL that authorizes the access based upon the user who logged into the console. The same method is used for the Download option.
Using the AWS Command-Line Interface (CLI), you can download objects. The AWS CLI needs to be pre-configured with your IAM security credentials to prove your identity.
Programs using an AWS SDK can access S3 objects using their IAM security credentials. In fact, the AWS CLI is simply a Python program that uses the AWS SDK.
If you want to access the object via a URL, an application can generate an Amazon S3 pre-signed URLs. This URL includes the user's identity and a security signature that grants access to a private object for a limited period (eg 5 minutes). This method is commonly used when web applications want to grant access to a private object, such as a document or photo. The S3 management console actually uses this method when a user selects Actions/Open, so that the user can view a private object in their browser.
First, I have full access to all my s3 buckets (I've administrator permission).
after paying with my s3 bucket policy I'm getting a problem that I cannot view or edit anything in my bucket, and getting the "Access Denied" error message.
It sounds like you have added a Deny rule on a Bucket Policy, which is overriding your Admin permissions. (Yes, it is possible to block access even for Administrators!)
In such a situation:
Log on as the "root" login (the one using an email address)
Delete the Bucket Policy
Fortunately, the account's "root" user always has full permissions. This is also why it should be used infrequently and access should be well-protected (eg using Multi-Factor Authentication).
I hope you have s3-bucket-Full-access in IAM role policies along with you need to setup
1.set Access-Control-list and Bucket Policies has to be public.
Bucket policies like below
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Id": "Policy159838074858",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "S3access",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": "*",
"Action": [
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:PutObject"
],
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::your bucketname/*"
}
]
}
here i just added read and update access to my s3 bucket in Action section if you need create and delete access add those actions there.
You can try with
aws s3api delete-bucket-policy --bucket s3-bucket-name
Or otherwise, enter with root access and modify the policy
I have an s3 bucket that is used to host a static site that is accessed through cloudfront.
I wish to use the s3 <RoutingRules> to redirect any 404 to the root of the request hostname. To do this I need to set the cloudfront origin to use the s3 "website endpoint".
However, it appears that to allow Cloudfront to access the s3 bucket via the "website endpoint" and not the "s3 REST API endpoint", I need to explicitly make the bucket public, namely, with a policy rule like:
{
"Sid": "AllowPublicGetObject",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "*"
},
"Action": "s3:GetObject",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::dev.ts3.online-test/*"
},
{
"Sid": "AllowPublicListBucket",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "*"
},
"Action": "s3:ListBucket",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::dev.ts3.online-test"
}
That's all well and good. It works. However AWS gives me a nice big shiny warning saying:
This bucket has public access. You have provided public access to this bucket. We highly recommend that you never grant any kind of public access to your S3 bucket.
So I have two questions I suppose:
Surely this warning should be caveated, and is just laziness on AWS' part? Everything in the bucket is static files that can be freely requested. There is no protected or secret content in the bucket. I don't see why giving public read is a security hole at all...
For peace of mind, is there any way to specify a principalId in the bucket policy that will only grant this to cloudfront? (I know if I use the REST endpoint I can set it to the OAI, but I can't use the rest endpoint)
The first thing about the warning.
The list buckets view shows whether your bucket is publicly accessible. Amazon S3 labels the permissions for a bucket as follows:
Public –
Everyone has access to one or more of the following: List objects, Write objects, Read and write permissions.
Objects can be public –::
The bucket is not public, but anyone with the appropriate permissions can grant public access to objects.
Buckets and objects not public –:
- The bucket and objects do not have any public access.
Only authorized users of this account –:
Access is isolated to IAM users and roles in this account and AWS service principals because there is a policy that grants public access.
So the warning due to first one. Recomended policy by AWS for s3 static website is below.
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "PublicReadGetObject",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": "*",
"Action": [
"s3:GetObject"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::example-bucket/*"
]
}
]
}
Add a bucket policy to the website bucket that grants everyone access
to the objects in the bucket. When you configure a bucket as a
website, you must make the objects that you want to serve publicly
readable. To do so, you write a bucket policy that grants everyone
s3:GetObject permission. The following example bucket policy grants
everyone access to the objects in the example-bucket bucket.
BTW public access should be only GET, not anything else, Its totally fine to allow GET request for your static website on S3.
