By default, a file uploaded to Amazon S3 can be accessed only by the AWS account that was used to upload it. If you want to make the file freely accessible to anyone on the Internet to view or download from a URL, you must make the file public.

To make a file public

• Open the Amazon S3 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/.
• In the Amazon S3 console, select the bucket that you created to contain your files. In our example, we will select the example123 bucket.
• Right-click the file you uploaded.

• Click Make Public.
• Click OK to confirm making the file public.
  Anyone on the Internet can now view and/or download the file.This traffic counts against your free usage tier allotment of 20,000 Get requests each month. To protect yourself from unexpected traffic that might exceed the limits of the free usage tier, you can make the file private, or you can delete the file at the end of this guide.
