CLI
AWS CLI

The following command retrieves the access control list for a bucket named my-bucket:

aws s3api get-bucket-acl --bucket my-bucket

Output:

{ "Owner": { "DisplayName": "my-username", "ID": "7009a8971cd538e11f6b6606438875e7c86c5b672f46db45460ddcd087d36c32" }, "Grants": [ { "Grantee": { "DisplayName": "my-username", "ID": "7009a8971cd538e11f6b6606438875e7c86c5b672f46db45460ddcd087d36c32" }, "Permission": "FULL_CONTROL" } ] }
