Examples

Configure a static website with a routing rule

In this example, AWS::S3::Bucket's Fn::GetAtt values are used to provide outputs. If an HTTP 404 error occurs, the routing rule redirects requests to an EC2 instance and inserts the object key prefix report-404/ in the redirect. For example, if you request a page called ExamplePage.html and it results in an HTTP 404 error, the request is routed to a page called report-404/ExamplePage.html on the specified instance. For all other HTTP error codes, error.html is returned.

This example also specifies a metrics configuration called EntireBucket that enables CloudWatch request metrics at the bucket level.
