Example read/write access policy

Grant read/write access to Amazon S3 bucket

The following example policy for AWS Transfer Family grants read/write access to objects in your Amazon S3 bucket.

Note

In the following example, replace bucket_name with the name of your S3 bucket.

Also, note that the GetObjectACL and PutObjectACL statements are only required if you are doing Cross Account Access. That is, your Transfer Family server needs to access a bucket in a different account.

        {
            "Sid": "AllowListingOfUserFolder",
            "Action": [
                "s3:ListBucket"  
            ],
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::bucket_name"
            ]
        },
        {

            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [

                "s3:GetObject",
                "s3:DeleteObject",
                "s3:DeleteObjectVersion",
                "s3:GetBucketLocation", 
                "s3:GetObjectVersion",
                "s3:GetObjectACL",
                "s3:PutObjectACL"
            ],
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::bucket_name/*"
        }
    ]
}
           

Grant file system access to files in Amazon EFS file system

Note

In addition to the policy, you must also make sure your POSIX file permissions are granting the appropriate access. For more information, see Working with users, groups, and permissions at the Network File System (NFS) Level in the Amazon Elastic File System User Guide.

The following example policy grants root file system access to files in your Amazon EFS file system.

Note

In the following examples, replace region with your region, account-id with the account the file is in, and file-system-id with the ID of your Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS).

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "RootFileSystemAccess",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "elasticfilesystem:ClientRootAccess",
                "elasticfilesystem:ClientMount",
                "elasticfilesystem:ClientWrite"
            ],
            "Resource": "arn:aws:elasticfilesystem:region:account-id:file-system/file-system-id"
        }
    ]
}

The following example policy grants user file system access to files in your Amazon EFS file system.

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "UserFileSystemAccess",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "elasticfilesystem:ClientMount",
                "elasticfilesystem:ClientWrite"
            ],
            "Resource": "arn:aws:elasticfilesystem:region:account-id:file-system/file-system-id"
        }
    ]
}
