how to configure aws s3 bucket for 307 redirect

Question

S3 buckets can be configured for "Static Website hosting" to redirect requests to another domain. These redirects are 301's which are forever.

How can I configure the redirects as 307's?

Answer 1

You should be able to configure this behavior using routing rules. Select "Use this bucket to host a web site" and then add these:

<RoutingRules>
 <RoutingRule>
    <Condition>
        <HttpErrorCodeReturnedEquals>403</HttpErrorCodeReturnedEquals>
    </Condition>
    <Redirect>
        <Protocol>https</Protocol>
        <HostName>other-site.example.com</HostName>
        <HttpRedirectCode>307</HttpRedirectCode>
    </Redirect>
 </RoutingRule>
</RoutingRules>

Since S3 denies all access by default, this triggers a redirect regardless of what path is requested.
