Codepipline s3 source action does not work

Hello,

The error message indicates the S3 source action can't find any files matching the path bucket-path/*.zip.

Problem: Wildcards (*) aren't supported with S3 source actions in CodePipeline.

Solution: Specify the exact filename of the zip artifact you expect.

Here's how to adjust your S3 source action:

Identify the filename: Locate the exact filename (e.g., deployment.zip) of the zip artifact you want to deploy.

Update S3ObjectKey: In your CodePipeline configuration, change the S3ObjectKey parameter of the S3 source action to the specific filename (deployment.zip).

Example:

# Incorrect (using wildcard)
S3Bucket: my-bucket
S3ObjectKey: bucket-path/*.zip

# Correct (specifying filename)
S3Bucket: my-bucket
S3ObjectKey: bucket-path/deployment.zip

link to the official AWS documentation that explains configuration options for the S3 source action and best practices for triggering pipelines based on S3 object changes: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codepipeline/latest/userguide/action-reference-S3.html

you're right, specifying a single filename in the S3 source action won't work if you want to deploy different zip artifacts each time.

Here are two approaches to handle dynamic filenames with CodePipeline:

Dynamic filenames in CodePipeline:

• Specify exact filename (not wildcards) in S3 source action.

Two approaches:

Manual (Environment Variables):

• Set a variable in CodePipeline with the filename for each deployment.
• Use a script in your buildspec to download the file based on the variable.

Automated (S3 Event):

• Configure S3 to trigger a CodeBuild project on new uploads.
• CodeBuild provides a variable with the uploaded filename for your script to use.

Both methods use variables to handle dynamic filenames
