Assign ELB Account to S3 Bucket Policy

Question

I used the AWS console from the load balancer edit attributes screen and used it to create a bucket to use for access logging. I'm using this policy to form CDK code in typescript to stand up new S3 buckets to use for access logging in higher level environments where I cannot use the console. This is the policy I need to somehow form in typescript CDK code:

"Statement": [
{
    "Effect":Allow",
    "Principal": {
        "AWS": "arn:--ELB-arnstuff--:root"
    },
    "Action": "s3:PutObject",
    "Resource": "arn:--S3-Bucket-arnstuff--/AWSLogs/123456789/*"
}
]

I've managed to get the cdk code figured out to this point:

bucket.addToResourcePolicy(
    new cdk.aws_iam.PolicyStatement({ 
      effect: awsIam.Effect.ALLOW,
      principals: //'**This is part I haven't figured out**',
      actions: ['s3:PutObject'],
      resources: ['${bucket.bucketArn}/*']
    })
);

At this point I don't care if it's hard coded in the CDK, I just need something to help keep the ball rolling forward. Any help is appreciated, thanks

thanks for reply but didn't answer the cdk related question – JKK May 07 '22 at 15:09 — JKK, May 07 '22 at 15:09
Where did you get this list of IDs for each region? – ONMNZ Feb 28 '23 at 01:25 — ONMNZ, Feb 28 '23 at 01:25

I figured out why it didn't work initially when I tried to do a .fromJson and just take the AWS generated policy and consume it directly into the CDK. The addToResourcePolicy function expects only one object at a time. The AWS generated policy had 3 objects in it. When I tried to use .fromJson I was passing too many objects at once.

In my snippet above I only provided one of those and I was trying to find the cdk equivalent Principal object to use for an AWS ELB Account. I found a work around by using the .fromJson for just this one policy object:

bucket.addToResourcePolicy(
  cdk.aws_iam.PolicyStatement.fromJson({
    "Effect":Allow",
    "Principal": {
      "AWS": "arn:--ELB-arnstuff--:root"
    },
    "Action": "s3:PutObject",
    "Resource": "arn:--S3-Bucket-arnstuff--/AWSLogs/123456789/*"
  })
);

Note the removal of the new operator when consuming a Json object and if you're running into the issue I had with multiple policies you'll need to create a bucket.addToResourcePolicy block of code for each of the Json object policies you wish to apply.
