Required Permissions

MinIO requires the following permissions scoped to to the bucket or buckets for which you are creating lifecycle management rules.

MinIO also requires the following administrative permissions on the cluster in which you are creating remote tiers for object transition lifecycle management rules:

For example, the following policy provides permission for configuring object transition lifecycle management rules on any bucket in the cluster:.

S3 Compatibility

The mc commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While mc commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.

Required Permissions
