Amazon S3 Access Denied only in CopyObject

I'm upload files from nodejs script and when I try to copy object I'm getting Access Denied error, if I try to delete the object or to get it - there is no problem and it success.

Is there anything spacial in the CopyObject?

params = {
     "Bucket": "buacket-name",
     "CopySource": "source-path/object.txt",
     "Key": "source-path/object2.txt"
};

s3.copyObject(params, function(err, data)); // With a function for success or error.

I had a similar issue to yours in that copyObject produced a 403 "Access Denied" response, but a getObject followed by a putObject worked fine. In my case, I did have the correct syntax for the CopySource parameter.

The solution to my problem was to add the s3:GetObjectTagging and s3:PutObjectTagging permissions to the IAM role performing the copy, since the copyObject operation will attempt to copy the tags over. I know this isn't the solution to your problem, but I'm putting this down answer in case someone else has something very similar.

Unfortunately, the documentation for the Node.JS API and the S3 service do not mention this permission requirement. I learned the solution in an SO answer.

Solved it! The problem was in my CopySource path, it needs to have the bucket name first, like so: backet-name/objectkey

Per the AWS S3 copyObject docs, the CopySource parameter should include the bucket and key names. For example:

var params = {
  CopySource: 'source_bucket/source_key',
  Bucket: 'destination_bucket_name',
  Key: 'destination_key'
};

s3.copyObject(params, function(error, data) {

  // error check
  if (error) {
    console.log(error, error.stack);
  }

  console.log('S3 object copied');
});
