IAM Permissions Example

gistfile1.json

{
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "s3:ListAllMyBuckets",
        "s3:ListBucket"
      ],
      "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::*"
    },
    {
      "Action": [
        "s3:PutObject",
        "s3:PutObjectAcl",
        "s3:GetObject",
        "s3:GetObjectAcl",
        "s3:DeleteObject",
        "s3:DeleteObjectAcl"
      ],
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Resource": [
        "arn:aws:s3:::MY-BACKUP-BUCKET/*"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Confirmed there is a typo in this gist:

Replace:

"s3:ListBuckets"

with

 "s3:ListBucket"
