Make an Amazon S3 bucket public

If you are hosting a static site using AWS S3, then you'll need to make the bucket public to access the files. This policy will do just that.

To add a policy, navigate to the bucket within the S3 UI and open the properties panel. Click Add Policy and paste the contents below, replacing bucket with the actual bucket name.

{
  "Version":"2008-10-17",
  "Statement":[{
    "Sid":"AddPerm",
        "Effect":"Allow",
      "Principal": {
            "AWS": "*"
         },
      "Action":["s3:GetObject"],
      "Resource":["arn:aws:s3:::bucket/*"
      ]
    }
  ]
}
