1. In the navigation pane on the left side of the console, choose **Access points for directory buckets**.

1. (Optional) Search for access points by name. Only access points in your selected AWS Region will appear here.

1. Choose the name of the access point you want to manage.

## Using the AWS CLI
<a name="access-points-directory-buckets-list-cli"></a>

The following `list-access-points-for-directory-buckets` example command shows how you can use the AWS CLI to list the access points owned by an AWS account and associated with a directory bucket.

# Viewing, editing or deleting access point policies
<a name="access-points-directory-buckets-policy"></a>

You can use an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) access point policy to control the principal and resource that can access the access point. The access point scope manages the prefixes and API permissions for the access point. You can create, edit, and delete an access point policy using the AWS Command Line Interface, REST API, or AWS SDKs. For more information about access point scope, see [Manage the scope of your access points for directory buckets](access-points-directory-buckets-manage-scope.md).

**Note**  
Since directory buckets use session-based authorization, your policy must always include the `s3express:CreateSession` action.

<a name="access-points-directory-buckets-modify-scope"></a>

You can use the AWS Management Console, AWS Command Line Interface, REST API, or AWS SDKs to modify the scope of your access points for directory buckets. Access point scope is used to restrict access to specific prefixes, API operations, or a combination of both.

You can include one or more of the following API operations as permissions:
+ `PutObject`
+ `GetObject`
+ `DeleteObject`
+ `ListBucket` (required for `ListObjectsV2`)
+ `GetObjectAttributes`
+ `AbortMultipartUploads`
+ `ListBucketMultipartUploads`
+ `ListMultipartUploadParts`

**Note**  
You can specify any amount of prefixes, but the total length of characters of all prefixes must be less than 256 bytes in size.

### Using the S3 console
<a name="access-points-directory-buckets-modify-scope-console"></a>

**To modify access point scope**

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon S3 console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/).

1. Choose the name of the access point you want to manage.

1. Choose the **Permissions** tab.

1. In the **Access point scope** section, choose **Edit**.

1. To add or remove prefixes:

   1. To add a prefix, choose **Add prefix**. In the **Prefix** field, enter a prefix of the directory bucket. Repeat to add more prefixes.

   1. To remove a prefix, choose **Remove**.

1. To add or remove permissions:

   1. To add a permission, in the **Choose data operations** field, choose the permission.

   1. To remove a permission, choose the **X** next to the permission.

1. Choose **Save changes**.

### Using the AWS CLI
<a name="access-points-directory-buckets-modify-scope-cli"></a>

The following `put-access-point-scope` example command shows how you can use the AWS CLI to modify the scope of your access point.

The following command modifies the access point scope of **my-access-point**--*zoneID*--xa-s3 for AWS account *111122223333*.

**Note**  
You can use wildcards in prefixes by using the asterisk (\$1) character. If you want to use the asterisk character as a literal, add a backslash character (\$1) before it to escape it.  
All prefixes have an implicit '\$1' ending, meaning all paths withing the prefix will be included.  
When you modify the scope of an access point with the AWS CLI, you replace the existing scope.

```
aws s3control put-access-point-scope --name my-access-point--zoneID--xa-s3 --account-id 111122223333 --scope Prefixes=string,Permissions=string
