List all the existing buckets for the AWS account using Boto3

Question

Hi Guys,

I have created S3 buckets in AWS. I want to list all the available buckets using the boto3 module. How can I do that?

Hi@akhtar,

You need to create a client using the boto3 module. It allows you to use some attributes related to s3 as shown below.

s3 = boto3.client('s3')
response = s3.list_buckets()

# Output the bucket names
print('Existing buckets:')
for bucket in response['Buckets']:
    print(f'  {bucket["Name"]}')
