How can I attach an S3 bucket to an URL on my site. I tried but could not get it to work.
For instance my URL is:
mysite.com/media
And my S3 bucket should be linked directly to the above URL?
You're going to want to use CloudFront in front of S3. This will allow you to use your domain and serve content from S3.
Check out Using CloudFront with Amazon S3 for details on how to do it.

I have a Cloudfront service which points to an index.html file in a S3 bucket.
Calling the Cloudfront URL is rendering the application which is correct.
I now want to use a custom "path" that gets appended to the Cloudfront.
So instead https://asdf.cloudfront.net/ I want to use https://asdf.cloudfront.net/my-app/ to point to my S3 bucket.
Is this possible with Cloudfront or do I have to move my s3 bucket content into a folder and then point to it?
Using the cloudfront to read and write in the same S3 bucket, how can I prohibit a user from using a read-presigned url to make an injection (upluad)?
Thanks.
Deny access to PUT for cloudfront and it won't be able to put data into s3. In s3 permissions you can allow read only calls from cloudfront only. Turn off public access on s3, to make sure it will allow gets only from cloudfront. On CloudFront use this to update s3 bucket access, before this disable any public access on s3. CF will update S3's policy & create CF origin access identity:
To put data into S3, use presigned URL and it all goes down to the place where you create the presigned URL for upload. You may have api gateway RESTfull tiny api which would authenticate user to get the upload url and would return the upload url, which would be used by user to upload data to S3.
I am trying to host my Angular website using CloudFront, S3, and Amazon EC2
instances. I am creating a bucket for e.g. bucket_name and creating 3 folders in it naming:-
1. example
2. login
3. logout
And my URL is:-
1. abc.com/example/
2. abc.com/example/login
3. abc.com/example/logout
But when I host my website I am able to access abc.com/example/ but the issue I am facing is that when I tried to access login and logout URL I am getting an error "404 not found". Because it is trying to locate index.html in the example folder of the S3 bucket like in this way example/login/index.html and EC2 instance is for API calls.
To host your site on S3 bucket and aws CloudFront you must include your parent file index.html in S3 bucket and after this you need to configure static website hosting under properties of S3 bucket. Set these fields as use this bucket to host website then enter index document index.html this file must be in S3 bucket, and save this.
Next step you can edit public access of this bucket, if you want this site accessible outside world then turn off block public access under Permissions tab of S3 bucket.
Later, to host this using CloudFront you need to create CloudFront distribution, and set Origin Domain name = Your S3 bucket name and Default Root Object to your parent index.html file (which is stored in s3 bucket) and save this CloudFront distribution, now check the Domain name URL on browser, it should work fine.
After completing this you can setup your EC2 instance for back-end API calls as per your needs.
Try to keep pages like login.html and logout.html. That should work.
I want to serve an HTML page from an S3 bucket, which I'm able to do w/o issue. I'd like to then have the S3 bucket response (the static webpage) include the request headers - can I do this?
With an S3 static site, I am able to hit /directory and it will serve up the index.html file inside the directory. Once I add the S3 bucket as a CloudFront origin, I instead get an Access Denied message.
How can I replicate this S3 functionality in CloudFront?
The fix was to setup S3 static site hosting and use CloudFront to point to it as a remote origin website instead of an S3 bucket.
