**To configure replication for an S3 bucket** The following ``put-bucket-replication`` example applies a replication configuration to the specified S3 bucket. :: aws s3api put-bucket-replication \ --bucket AWSDOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1 \ --replication-configuration file://replication.json Contents of ``replication.json``:: { "Role": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/s3-replication-role", "Rules": [ { "Status": "Enabled", "Priority": 1, "DeleteMarkerReplication": { "Status": "Disabled" }, "Filter" : { "Prefix": ""}, "Destination": { "Bucket": "arn:aws:s3:::AWSDOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET2" } } ] } The destination bucket must have versioning enabled. The specified role must have permission to write to the destination bucket and have a trust relationship that allows Amazon S3 to assume the role. Example role permission policy:: { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:GetReplicationConfiguration", "s3:ListBucket" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::AWSDOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1" ] }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:GetObjectVersion", "s3:GetObjectVersionAcl", "s3:GetObjectVersionTagging" ], "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::AWSDOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1/*" ] }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "s3:ReplicateObject", "s3:ReplicateDelete", "s3:ReplicateTags" ], "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::AWSDOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET2/*" } ] } Example trust relationship policy:: { "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Principal": { "Service": "s3.amazonaws.com" }, "Action": "sts:AssumeRole" } ] } This command produces no output.
