# Setting Up AWS S3 Bucket

To stream logs to an **AWS S3 bucket**, you need to create a bucket and an **AWS IAM Role** that provides access to it.

The AWS IAM Role (or IAM user) must have the `PutObject` permission for the destination bucket.

You can use the following CloudFormation [quick-create link](https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/home?region=us-east-1#/stacks/quickcreate?stackName=ioriver-iam-role-s3-logs-stack&templateURL=https://providers-ioriver.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ior_iam_role_logs_s3_cloudformation.yaml&param_ExternalID=) to set up the required IAM Role.
