AWS Rekognition And S3 Bucket Region

I am getting the following error when trying to access my s3 bucket with aws rekognition: message: 'Unable to get object metadata from S3. Check object key, region and/or access pe

Solution 1:

Was having the same issue and the solution was to to use the same region for the Rekognition API and S3 bucket, and if using a Role make sure that it has proper permissions to access both S3 and Rekognition.

Solution 2:

I had the same problem, resolved by choosing the specific aws recommended region for rekognition.
