What issue do you have?

I'm a new user and need some help configuring the permissions for my S3 bucket. I'm brand new to AWS. I've followed the instructions on S3 synchronisation | Joplin. I'm up to the part that says "To add a Bucket Policy from the AWS S3 Web Console, navigate to the Permissions tab. Temporarily disable Block all public access to edit the Bucket policy, something along the lines of:". See attached screenshot. I see how to disable the "block all public access". My question is how / where do I insert my code?

{
"Version": "2025-03-31",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor0",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"s3:ListBucket",
"s3:GetBucketLocation",
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:DeleteObject",
"s3:DeleteObjectVersion",
"s3:PutObject"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::mybucket",
"arn:aws:s3:::mybucket/*"
]
}
]
}

Thanks!

I got the S3 bucket permission config figured out thanks to Perplexity. Now my S3 sync config checks out but I get a DNS error message when I try to sync. Any ideas?

I used this really good guide when setting up S3 sync - How to synchronise Joplin notes to AWS S3

Not sure about your issue but maybe worth checking the above and seeing if you missed something?

Hope that helps.
