S3 Documents Appearing In Google Search

0

Help!

We realized our AWS S3 Documents are showing up in Google Search and the links are clickable. These documents are for our clients who pay for a subscription with us. How do I change the settings of the documents so that they do not appear in Google Search? We do make the link public when we release them but that is so our client can view them. Is there anyway around them being available to ANYONE in Google?

Ensure that your S3 bucket permissions are set correctly:

  • Block Public Access: Enable “Block all public access” for your S3 bucket to prevent accidental public exposure.
  • Bucket Policy: Create a bucket policy that denies public access to all objects in the bucket.
  • Object ACLs: Make sure that individual objects (documents) are not publicly accessible. Set their ACLs to private or restrict access to authorized users only.

    Thank you! Is there any way to block the S3 Documents from being Searchable on Google while still having the link public to have our clients click on the document to access it without having to sign into a platform?
