This PR fixes the documentation for the S3 backend.
The current DynamoDB IAM policy states that the lock key path should be prefixed with the DynamoDB table name. This is incorrect. As indicated by the source code below, the lock key path is prefixed by the S3 bucket name, not the DynamoDB table name.
terraform/internal/backend/remote-state/s3/client.go
Lines 495 to 497 in a73e4e6
I've also updated the bucket's name to
BucketName
to match the DynamoDB table name,TableName.
