Restrict access to a single folder in S3 bucket

Question

I want to restrict the access to a single folder in S3 bucket.

I have written a IAM role for the same. Somehow I am not upload/sync the files to this folder. Here, bucket is the bucket name and folder is the folder where I want to give access.

            ],
            "Effect": "Allow",

                "arn:aws:s3:::*"
            ]
        },
        {
            "Sid": "AllowRootAndHomeListingOfBucket",
            "Action": [

            ],

                        ""
                    ],
                    "s3:delimiter": [
                        "/"
                    ]
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "Sid": "AllowListingOfUserFolder",
            "Action": [
                "s3:ListBucket",
                "s3:PutObject",
                "s3:PutObjectAcl",
                "s3:GetObject",
                "s3:GetObjectAcl",
                "s3:HeadObject"
            ],
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::bucket"
            ],
            "Condition": {
                "StringLike": {
                    "s3:prefix": [
                        "folder/*"
                    ]
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

Please suggest where I am wrong.

Solution

This restrictive IAM policy grants only list and upload access to a particular prefix in a particular bucket. It also intends to allow multipart uploads.

            "Sid": "ListBucket",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": "s3:ListBucket",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::mybucket",
            "Condition": {
                "StringLike": {
                    "s3:prefix": "my/prefix/is/this/*"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "Sid": "UploadObject",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "s3:PutObject",
                "s3:AbortMultipartUpload",
                "s3:ListMultipartUploadParts"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::mybucket/my/prefix/is/this/*",
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Note that specifying the s3:ListBucket resource compactly as "arn:aws:s3:::mybucket/my/prefix/is/this/*" didn't work.
