Confirm S3 Bucket

Ensure your logs are being sent to an S3 bucket. The following guide from Amazon will help you achieve this if you are not doing so already:

Cloudwatch to S3 (opens in a new tab).

Ensure Adequate Bucket Permissions

The following permissions applied to the AWS IAM Policy being used:

  • s3:ListBucket to check if the S3 bucket exists and list objects in it.
  • s3:GetObject to check object metadata and download objects from S3 buckets.

Below is how your permissions should appear:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
      {
          "Sid": "SidID",
          "Effect": "Allow",
          "Action": [
              "s3:GetObject",
              "s3:ListBucket"
            ],
          "Resource": [
              "arn:aws:s3:::your-bucket/*"
          ]
      }
  ]
}
