<a name="s3_example_s3_GetBucketLifecycleConfiguration_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `GetBucketLifecycleConfiguration`.

------
#### [ .NET ]

**SDK for .NET**  
 There's more on GitHub. Find the complete example and learn how to set up and run in the [AWS Code Examples Repository](https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples/tree/main/dotnetv3/S3#code-examples). 

```
        /// <summary>
        /// Returns a configuration object for the supplied bucket name.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="client">The S3 client object used to call
        /// the GetLifecycleConfigurationAsync method.</param>
        /// <param name="bucketName">The name of the S3 bucket for which a
        /// configuration will be created.</param>
        /// <returns>Returns a new LifecycleConfiguration object.</returns>
        public static async Task<LifecycleConfiguration> RetrieveLifecycleConfigAsync(IAmazonS3 client, string bucketName)
        {
            var request = new GetLifecycleConfigurationRequest()
            {
                BucketName = bucketName,
            };
            var response = await client.GetLifecycleConfigurationAsync(request);
            var configuration = response.Configuration;
            return configuration;
        }

#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
The following command retrieves the lifecycle configuration for a bucket named `amzn-s3-demo-bucket`:  

```
aws s3api get-bucket-lifecycle-configuration --bucket amzn-s3-demo-bucket
```
Output:  

```

    "Rules": [
        {
            "ID": "Move rotated logs to Glacier",
            "Prefix": "rotated/",
            "Status": "Enabled",
            "Transitions": [
