I keep getting the following error in JAMF - unable to create distribution for this bucket - when trying to setup a cloud distribution point using AWS S3. This is a new install of version 10.10.1 and MySQL 8.0 using Java 8 update 202 I've done the following:

-Installed SSL cert on JSS

-Created a user in AWS with permissions stated in this kb - I even added additional permission for Cloudfront in an attempt to troubleshoot - https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/articles/643/integrating-amazon-web-services-aws-with-jamf-pro

-When I look in S3 after the error, a bucket was actually created. When I look in Cloudfront, distribution was actually created. However I get this error message and cannot save the distribution point.

Any ideas?

Having the same issue. Were you able to figure this out? Bucket is created but "Unable to Create Distribution" error.

Quick update, it was a permission issue with AWS. You can TEMPORARILY verify that it is the permission by changing 

"cloudfront:CreateCloudFrontOriginAccessIdentity"
and
"s3:AbortMultipartUpload",
"cloudfront: *"  
AND
"s3:*"

After doing this, change the settings back.

Sorry, I haven't checked in in several days. You are correct. It was a permission issue for me as well. I ended up following this guide: https://derflounder.wordpress.com/2017/03/07/creating-a-jamf-pro-cloud-distribution-point-using-amazon-web-services/
