Returns the policy of a specified bucket. If you are using an identity
other than the root user of the AWS account that owns the bucket, the
calling identity must have the
get_bucket_policy
permissions on the specified
bucket and belong to the bucket owner's account in order to use this
operation.
If you don't have get_bucket_policy
permissions, Amazon S3 returns a 403 Access Denied
error. If you have
the correct permissions, but you're not using an identity that belongs
to the bucket owner's account, Amazon S3 returns a
405 Method Not Allowed
error.
As a security precaution, the root user of the AWS account that owns a
bucket can always use this operation, even if the policy explicitly
denies the root user the ability to perform this action.
