Setting aws s3 file permission to public after upload in Laravel

I am developing a web application. In my application, I am implementing file uploaded feature. I store the uploaded file in the aws s3 bucket. I am uploading the file to the s3 bucket as follow.

 $photo_file_path = $request->file('image_file')->store(
            'images/artworks/gallery-images/'.uniqid(),  's3'
          );

The above code is working fine. The file is uploaded to s3. But the problem is I want the file to be public when it is uploaded to s3 so that the photo can be accessible from url as well. I set both bucket policy and access control to public.

This is my bucket policy

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Id": "Policy1234566788",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "Stmt151234344545",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": "*",
            "Action": "s3:*",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::my-bucket"
        }
    ]
}

As you can see my bucket is now public for both access control and bucket policy. enter image description here

But when I upload the file from Laravel, it is uploaded to the bucket, but the file is still hidden from the public. So, how can I change the file permission to public once the file is uploaded, please?

Setting filesystems.disks.s3.visibility to public works perfectly.

Laravel provides different methods to store the files.

One of the easiest way is to use storePublicly():

$photo_file_path = $request->file('image_file')->storePublicly(
        'images/artworks/gallery-images/'.uniqid()
      );

if all your stored files can or should have public you can add 'visibility' => 'public', so any file stored in the drive will have public visibility :

 's3' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => env('AWS_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET'),
            'region' => ('AWS_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
            'visibility' => 'public',
        ],

if not, you can configure another drive with same settings including the public flag:

 's3' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => env('AWS_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET'),
            'region' => ('AWS_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),

        ],
 's3Public' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => env('AWS_KEY'),
            'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET'),
            'region' => ('AWS_REGION'),
            'bucket' => env('AWS_BUCKET'),
            'visibility' => 'public',
        ],

and then just call store selecting the drive with public visibility:

$photo_file_path = $request->file('image_file')->store(
            'images/artworks/gallery-images/'.uniqid(),  's3Public'
          );
