Is it possible to specify a log folder within S3 LoggingConfiguration using CloudFormation?

Question

I am trying to create an S3 bucket using CloudFormation, but it does not appear possible to log to a specific folder unless performed through the portal. When appending the folder to the bucket name in the DestinationBucketName property an error is thrown while creating the stack. Only the bucket name works, which means the logs will be created in the root folder.

Answer

Yes, you can. "Folder" is set in **LogFilePrefix**, not as a part of DestinationBucketName.

```
  DestinationBucketName: String
  LogFilePrefix: String
```
See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-s3-bucket-loggingconfig.html
