# `AWSConfigRemediation-EnableCloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity`
<a name="automation-aws-enable-cloudfront-origin-access"></a>

 **Description** 

 The `AWSConfigRemediation-EnableCloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity` runbook enables origin access identity for the Amazon CloudFront (CloudFront) distribution you specify. This automation assigns the same CloudFront Origin Access Identity for all Origins of the Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) Origin type without origin access identity for the CloudFront distribution you specify. This automation does not grant read permission to the origin access identity for CloudFront to access objects in your Amazon S3 bucket. You must update your Amazon S3 bucket permissions to allow access.
