Create Bucket Metadata Table Configuration

s3_create_bucket_metadata_table_configuration

R Documentation

Description¶

We recommend that you create your S3 Metadata configurations by using the V2 create_bucket_metadata_configuration API operation. We no longer recommend using the V1 create_bucket_metadata_table_configuration API operation.

If you created your S3 Metadata configuration before July 15, 2025, we recommend that you delete and re-create your configuration by using create_bucket_metadata_configuration so that you can expire journal table records and create a live inventory table.

Creates a V1 S3 Metadata configuration for a general purpose bucket. For more information, see Accelerating data discovery with S3 Metadata in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

Permissions¶

To use this operation, you must have the following permissions. For more information, see Setting up permissions for configuring metadata tables in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

If you want to encrypt your metadata tables with server-side encryption with Key Management Service (KMS) keys (SSE-KMS), you need additional permissions. For more information, see Setting up permissions for configuring metadata tables in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

If you also want to integrate your table bucket with Amazon Web Services analytics services so that you can query your metadata table, you need additional permissions. For more information, see Integrating Amazon S3 Tables with Amazon Web Services analytics services in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
