Please see the end of the tutorial @amitai did showing install/uninstall procedures. [Taking the Leap: My First Steps in OpenSearch Plugins | Logz.io](https://logz.io/blog/opensearch-plugins/) It works for sure on OpenSearch. ---

I suggest opening an issue with the details of your problem in Github and it will be answered. You haven’t given any information aside from “has error” which is not very helpful in debugging your problem. ---

Here is the doc we put in to help with instructions on installing… > But for this problem, seems like the s3 plugin is not independently released which is why its failing to download the artifact. ---

Hi dear team, I have the same issue while I want to install `discovery-gce` Should I use the procedure here : [opensearch-plugins/INSTALLING.md at main · opensearch-project/opensearch-plugins · GitHub](https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-plugins/blob/main/INSTALLING.md) Isn’t there an easier way to install plugins as I want to do it automatically in my code? e.g. `/etc/opensearch/bin/opensearch-plugin install --batch discovery-gce` ---

(Just posting for those of you who still want to use this before version 1.1) If you wish to do this in a docker you can use this Dockerfile: ```auto FROM opensearchproject/opensearch:1.0.0 USER root ADD https://artifacts.opensearch.org/releases/plugins/repository-s3/1.0.0/repository-s3-1.0.0.zip /usr RUN chown -R opensearch:opensearch /usr/repository-s3-1.0.0.zip USER opensearch:opensearch RUN /usr/share/opensearch/bin/opensearch-plugin install --batch file:///usr/repository-s3-1.0.0.zip ``` Then run ```auto docker build --tag=opensearch-with-s3-plugin . ``` And of course, use `opensearch-with-s3-plugin` in your `docker-compose.yml`. ---

Hi @hajdi ! I am not an AWS employee, I accessed this artifact without any issues. However, this is an outdated topic - you may use OpenSearch v1.1.0 and s3 plugin should work fine without the workaround 🥳 ---

Note that S3 [returns a 403 when a file doesn’t exist and the requester doesn’t have permission to list the bucket contents](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19037664/how-do-i-have-an-s3-bucket-return-404-instead-of-403-for-a-key-that-does-not-e), which may be confusing - this is not a permissions problem.
