Connect to aws s3 bucket

[ben.swiderski]

I can’t seem to connect with my AWS s3 instance - “The S3 server could not validate these credentials.”

I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong. I have created a bucket on s3. I have created a user with [AmazonS3FullAccess] on IAM, and I have copied across the Access and secret key but the s3 server still cannot validate my credentials.

In the Host section of the set-up it states - Non AWS only? Does that mean s3.bucketname.com is the correct format? Are there certain permissions that I have to set-up?

Can someone walk me through it - thank you!
