Working with Object & Bucket ACL Lab Guide
- Log in to the AWS Management Console using your root account credentials.
- Open the Amazon S3 console by clicking on “Services” in the top navigation bar, selecting “S3” from the dropdown menu.
- Click on the name of the S3 bucket that contains the object you want to make public.
- Locate the object you want to make public and click on the checkbox next to it to select it.
- Click on the “Actions” dropdown menu, and select “Make public”.
- In the “Make public” dialog box, click on the “Make public” button. This will set the object’s ACL to allow public access.
- Click on the object name to open the object details page.
- Click on the “Object URL” button to get the object’s public URL.
- Open a new tab in your browser and paste the object URL. This should display the object in your browser, indicating that it is now publicly accessible.
- Navigate back to the S3 console, and click on the “Permissions” tab.
- Under the “Access control list (ACL)” section, you can see the object’s ACL. The ACL determines who has access to the object and what level of access they have.
- You can also configure the bucket’s ACL by clicking on the “Bucket ACL” button at the bottom of the page. The bucket ACL determines the default access level for all objects in the bucket.
