After the bucket has been created, we will need to set up a data feed into this S3 bucket via CloudTrail. Click CloudTrail.

Rw step

Create a new trail following these steps:

Click Create trail.

When setting up the trail on the screen, make sure to choose the S3 bucket you want CloudTrail to send data into accordingly. If you have an existing S3 bucket, choose that box and enter your S3 bucket name. Otherwise, create a new S3 bucket here.

A prefix is optional but highly recommended for easier set up of S3 event notifications to different SQS queues.

All other options on this page are optional, but default settings do work. Check with your infra team to figure out what they want to do.

On the next page, you choose the log events you wish for CloudTrail to capture. At the very least, we recommend Management events be enabled. Data events and Insight events are additional charges so check with your team about this. Data events can generate A LOT of data if your account has power users of S3. Please check with your AWS team to see if these are worthwhile to track.

Finish up and create the trail.
