# S3 Bucket
The [**S3Retriever**](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/thomaspoignant/go-feature-flag/retriever/s3retriever/#Retriever) will use the [aws-sdk](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-go) to access your flag in an S3 bucket.

## Example
```go showLineNumbers
awsConfig, _ := config.LoadDefaultConfig(context.Background())
err := ffclient.Init(ffclient.Config{
    PollingInterval: 3 * time.Second,
    Retriever: &s3retrieverv2.Retriever{
        Bucket: "tpoi-test",
        Item:   "flag-config.goff.yaml",
        AwsConfig: &awsCOnfig,
    },
})
defer ffclient.Close()
```

## Configuration fields
