Set up Access Logging for S3 buckets

Overview

This plan guides you through configuring S3 access logging to improve visibility into bucket access patterns.

It begins by listing all existing S3 buckets, checking their current logging status, and prompting you to choose which buckets to configure.

You then decide on a target bucket to store these logs, either using an existing one or creating a new dedicated bucket.

If necessary, the plan updates the target bucket’s policy to ensure logs can be delivered properly.

Finally, it applies and validates the chosen logging configurations, ensuring the logs start appearing as expected in the target bucket.
