Overview

Grants bestow a access permission to grantees. Each grant of some access control list Policy is associated with a grantee. There are three ways of specifying a grantee at the time of this writing.

  • By canonical user - This format uses the id of a given Amazon account. The id value for a given account is available in the

Owner object of a bucket, object or policy.

 grantee.id = 'bb2041a25975c3d4ce9775fe9e93e5b77a6a9fad97dc7e00686191f3790b13f1'

Often the id will just be fetched from some owner object.

grantee.id = some_object.owner.id
  • By amazon email address - You can specify an email address for any Amazon account. The Amazon account need not be signed up with the S3 service.

though it must be unique across the entire Amazon system. This email address is normalized into a canonical user representation once the grant has been sent back up to the S3 servers.

grantee.email_address = '[email protected]'
  • By group - As of this writing you can not create custom groups, but Amazon provides three group that you can use. See the documentation for the

Grantee.group= method for details.

grantee.group = 'Authenticated'

grantee.group = 'AllUsers'

Currently, valid groups defined by S3 are:

  • AllUsers: This group represents anyone. In other words, an anonymous request.

  • Authenticated: Any authenticated account on the S3 service.

  • LogDelivery: The entity that delivers bucket access logs.
