Amazon S3: How to Fix the Forbidden Error with FileZilla Pro CLI

If you are getting the 403 Forbidden error when connecting to Amazon S3 storage check if your access key ID has permission to list the available buckets. In case your access key ID is restricted to a single bucket you need to enter it as the path parameter when connecting.

Make sure it is prefixed with a slash:

    fzcli> connect s3://ACCESSKEY:SECRETKEY@s3.amazonaws.com/BUCKET
