PutBucketLifecycleConfiguration
Creates a new lifecycle configuration for the bucket or replaces an existing lifecycle configuration. Keep in mind that this will overwrite an existing lifecycle configuration, so if you want to retain any configuration details, they must be included in the new lifecycle configuration. For information about lifecycle configuration, see Managing your storage lifecycle.
Note
Bucket lifecycle configuration now supports specifying a lifecycle rule using an object key name prefix, one or more object tags, object size, or any combination of these. Accordingly, this section describes the latest API. The previous version of the API supported filtering based only on an object key name prefix, which is supported for backward compatibility. For the related API description, see PutBucketLifecycle.
Important
When making a request using the REST API, you must include the
Content-MD5
header.
- Rules
-
You specify the lifecycle configuration in your request body. The lifecycle configuration is specified as XML consisting of one or more rules. An Amazon S3 Lifecycle configuration can have up to 1,000 rules. This limit is not adjustable.
Bucket lifecycle configuration supports specifying a lifecycle rule using an object key name prefix, one or more object tags, object size, or any combination of these. Accordingly, this section describes the latest API. The previous version of the API supported filtering based only on an object key name prefix, which is supported for backward compatibility for general purpose buckets. For the related API description, see PutBucketLifecycle.
Note
Lifecyle configurations for directory buckets only support expiring objects and cancelling multipart uploads. Expiring of versioned objects,transitions and tag filters are not supported.
A lifecycle rule consists of the following:
-
A filter identifying a subset of objects to which the rule applies. The filter can be based on a key name prefix, object tags, object size, or any combination of these.
-
A status indicating whether the rule is in effect.
-
One or more lifecycle transition and expiration actions that you want Amazon S3 to perform on the objects identified by the filter. If the state of your bucket is versioning-enabled or versioning-suspended, you can have many versions of the same object (one current version and zero or more noncurrent versions). Amazon S3 provides predefined actions that you can specify for current and noncurrent object versions.
For more information, see Object Lifecycle Management and Lifecycle Configuration Elements.
-
- Permissions
-
-
General purpose bucket permissions - By default, all Amazon S3 resources are private, including buckets, objects, and related subresources (for example, lifecycle configuration and website configuration). Only the resource owner (that is, the Amazon Web Services account that created it) can access the resource. The resource owner can optionally grant access permissions to others by writing an access policy. For this operation, a user must have the
s3:PutLifecycleConfiguration
permission.You can also explicitly deny permissions. An explicit deny also supersedes any other permissions. If you want to block users or accounts from removing or deleting objects from your bucket, you must deny them permissions for the following actions:
-
s3:DeleteObject
-
s3:DeleteObjectVersion
-
s3:PutLifecycleConfiguration
For more information about permissions, see Managing Access Permissions to Your Amazon S3 Resources.
-
-
Directory bucket permissions - You must have the
s3express:PutLifecycleConfiguration
permission in an IAM identity-based policy to use this operation. Cross-account access to this API operation isn't supported. The resource owner can optionally grant access permissions to others by creating a role or user for them as long as they are within the same account as the owner and resource.For more information about directory bucket policies and permissions, see Authorizing Regional endpoint APIs with IAM in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
Note
Directory buckets - For directory buckets, you must make requests for this API operation to the Regional endpoint. These endpoints support path-style requests in the format
https://s3express-control.region-code.amazonaws.com/bucket-name
. Virtual-hosted-style requests aren't supported. For more information about endpoints in Availability Zones, see Regional and Zonal endpoints for directory buckets in Availability Zones in the Amazon S3 User Guide. For more information about endpoints in Local Zones, see Concepts for directory buckets in Local Zones in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

URI Request Parameters
The request uses the following URI parameters.
- Bucket
-
The name of the bucket for which to set the configuration.
Required: Yes
- x-amz-expected-bucket-owner
-
The account ID of the expected bucket owner. If the account ID that you provide does not match the actual owner of the bucket, the request fails with the HTTP status code
403 Forbidden
(access denied).Note
This parameter applies to general purpose buckets only. It is not supported for directory bucket lifecycle configurations.
- x-amz-sdk-checksum-algorithm
-
Indicates the algorithm used to create the checksum for the object when you use the SDK. This header will not provide any additional functionality if you don't use the SDK. When you send this header, there must be a corresponding
x-amz-checksum
orx-amz-trailer
header sent. Otherwise, Amazon S3 fails the request with the HTTP status code400 Bad Request
. For more information, see Checking object integrity in the Amazon S3 User Guide.If you provide an individual checksum, Amazon S3 ignores any provided
ChecksumAlgorithm
parameter.Valid Values:
CRC32 | CRC32C | SHA1 | SHA256
- x-amz-transition-default-minimum-object-size
-
Indicates which default minimum object size behavior is applied to the lifecycle configuration.
Note
This parameter applies to general purpose buckets only. It is not supported for directory bucket lifecycle configurations.
-
all_storage_classes_128K
- Objects smaller than 128 KB will not transition to any storage class by default. -
varies_by_storage_class
- Objects smaller than 128 KB will transition to Glacier Flexible Retrieval or Glacier Deep Archive storage classes. By default, all other storage classes will prevent transitions smaller than 128 KB.
To customize the minimum object size for any transition you can add a filter that specifies a custom
ObjectSizeGreaterThan
orObjectSizeLessThan
in the body of your transition rule. Custom filters always take precedence over the default transition behavior.Valid Values:
varies_by_storage_class | all_storage_classes_128K
-
Request Body
The request accepts the following data in XML format.
- LifecycleConfiguration
-
Root level tag for the LifecycleConfiguration parameters.
Required: Yes
- Rule
-
A lifecycle rule for individual objects in an Amazon S3 bucket.
Type: Array of LifecycleRule data types
Required: Yes
Response Syntax
HTTP/1.1 200
x-amz-transition-default-minimum-object-size: TransitionDefaultMinimumObjectSize
Response Elements
If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.
The response returns the following HTTP headers.
- x-amz-transition-default-minimum-object-size
-
Indicates which default minimum object size behavior is applied to the lifecycle configuration.

To customize the minimum object size for any transition you can add a filter that specifies a custom
ObjectSizeGreaterThan
orObjectSizeLessThan
in the body of your transition rule. Custom filters always take precedence over the default transition behavior.Valid Values:
varies_by_storage_class | all_storage_classes_128K
-
Examples
Example 1: Add lifecycle configuration - bucket not versioning-enabled
The following lifecycle configuration for a general purpose bucket specifies two rules, each with one action.
-
The
Transition
action requests Amazon S3 to transition objects with the "documents/" prefix to the GLACIER storage class 30 days after creation. -
The
Expiration
action requests Amazon S3 to delete objects with the "logs/" prefix 365 days after creation.
<LifecycleConfiguration> <Rule> <ID>id1</ID> <Filter> <Prefix>documents/</Prefix> </Filter> <Status>Enabled</Status> <Transition> <Days>30</Days> <StorageClass>GLACIER</StorageClass> </Transition> </Rule> <Rule> <ID>id2</ID> <Filter> <Prefix>logs/</Prefix> </Filter> <Status>Enabled</Status> <Expiration> <Days>365</Days> </Expiration> </Rule> </LifecycleConfiguration>
Example 2: Adding a lifecycle configuration to a general purpose bucket
The following is a sample PUT /?lifecycle
request that adds the
preceding lifecycle configuration to a general purpose bucket.

Example 3: Add a lifecycle configuration - bucket is versioning-enabled
The following lifecycle configuration for a general purpose bucket specifies two rules, each with one action for Amazon S3 to perform. You specify these actions when your bucket is versioning-enabled or versioning is suspended:
-
The
NoncurrentVersionExpiration
action requests Amazon S3 to expire noncurrent versions of objects with the "logs/" prefix 100 days after the objects become noncurrent. -
The
NoncurrentVersionTransition
action requests Amazon S3 to transition noncurrent versions of objects with the "documents/" prefix to the GLACIER storage class 30 days after they become noncurrent.
