AWS CLI S3 A client error (403) occurred when calling the HeadObject operation: Forbidden

Question

I\'m trying to setup a Amazon Linux AMI(ami-f0091d91) and have a script that runs a copy command to copy from a S3 bucket.

 aws --debug s3 cp s3://aws-codede         


        

Answer 1

I was getting a 403 on HEAD requests while the GET requests were working. It turned out to be the CORS config in s3 permissions. I had to add HEAD

    HEAD
    PUT
    POST
    GET
