AWS Polly InvalidS3BucketException

The specified S3 bucket is not valid or accessible.

Understanding AWS Polly

AWS Polly is a service provided by Amazon Web Services that turns text into lifelike speech. It allows developers to create applications that can talk, making it a valuable tool for enhancing user interaction with applications through voice. Polly supports a variety of languages and voices, making it versatile for global applications.

Identifying the Symptom: InvalidS3BucketException

When using AWS Polly, you might encounter the InvalidS3BucketException. This error typically arises when Polly is unable to access the specified S3 bucket. The symptom is usually an error message indicating that the S3 bucket is invalid or inaccessible.

Explaining the Issue: Invalid S3 Bucket

The InvalidS3BucketException occurs when the S3 bucket name provided is incorrect or the permissions are not set properly. AWS Polly requires access to the S3 bucket to store or retrieve audio files, and any misconfiguration can lead to this error.

Common Causes

  • Incorrect S3 bucket name.
  • Insufficient permissions for AWS Polly to access the bucket.
  • Region mismatch between AWS Polly and the S3 bucket.

Steps to Resolve the InvalidS3BucketException

To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

Step 1: Verify the S3 Bucket Name

Ensure that the S3 bucket name is correctly specified in your application. The name should match exactly, including case sensitivity. You can verify the bucket name in the AWS S3 Console.

Step 2: Check Bucket Permissions

Ensure that the bucket policy allows access to AWS Polly. You can modify the bucket policy in the S3 console:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "polly.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "s3:PutObject",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::your-bucket-name/*"
}
]
}

Replace your-bucket-name with your actual bucket name.

Step 3: Verify Region Settings

Ensure that both AWS Polly and your S3 bucket are in the same region. You can check and modify the region settings in the AWS Management Console.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the InvalidS3BucketException and ensure smooth operation of AWS Polly with your S3 bucket. For more detailed information, refer to the AWS Polly Documentation.
