S3 Lifecycle Management Rule

Question

Hi AWS, I want to create a lifecycle management rule which follows:

1. Infrequent access
2. Wait 6 months before going into Glacier
3. 7 years and then delete

I am not sure about the last one how to achieve it in the same rule. Please suggest.

Answer

You have transition action and expiration action element. Under **expiration**, set *Days after creation* to `2555` (which is approximately `7` years).
