Important

End of support notice: Beginning October 1, 2025, Amazon S3 will stop returning DisplayName. Update your applications to use canonical IDs (unique identifier for AWS accounts), AWS account ID (12 digit identifier) or IAM ARNs (full resource naming) as a direct replacement of DisplayName.

Between July 15, 2025 and October 1, 2025, you will begin to see an increasing rate of missing DisplayName in the Owner object.

This change affects the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia) Region, US West (N. California) Region, US West (Oregon) Region, Asia Pacific (Singapore) Region, Asia Pacific (Sydney) Region, Asia Pacific (Tokyo) Region, Europe (Ireland) Region, and South America (São Paulo) Region.
