6. Delete the default JSON in the Advanced Access policy.
7. Copy and paste in the following JSON, changing `<bucketname>` to be the name of the S3 bucket you created in an earlier step.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JSON" %}

```json
{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Id": "PushMessageToSQSPolicy",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "allow-sns-to-send-message-to-sqs",
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": {
        "AWS": "*"
      },
      "Action": "sqs:SendMessage",
      "Resource": "*",
      "Condition": {
        "StringLike": {
          "aws:SourceArn": "arn:aws:s3:::<bucketname>"

      }
    }
