Tempo documentation Configure Amazon S3 permissions

Amazon S3 permissions

For configuration options, refer to the storage section on the configuration page.

The following authentication methods are supported:

• AWS environment variables AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
• Static access key and secret credentials specified in access_key and secret_key
• MinIO environment variables MINIO_ACCESS_KEY and MINIO_SECRET_KEY
• AWS shared credentials configuration file
• MinIO client credentials configuration file
• AWS IAM (IRSA via WebIdentity,
• AWS EC2 instance role)

The following IAM policy shows minimal permissions required by Tempo, where the bucket has already been created.
