Amazon S3 copyObject permission

Question

I\'v got user with all permissions.

      \"Resource\": \"*\"
    }
  ]

Answer 1

Found out what the issue is here; being an AWS newbie I struggled here for a bit until I realized that each policy for the users you set needs to clearly allow the service you're using.

In this case I hadn't set the user to be allowed into S3.

Goto IAM then goto Users and click on the particular user that has the credentials you're using. From there goto Permissions tab, then click on Attach User Policy and find the S3 policy under select policy template. This should fix your problem.

Hope that helps!
