+Barman Cloud requires the following permissions in the S3 bucket:

+- [`s3:AbortMultipartUpload`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_AbortMultipartUpload.html)
+- [`s3:CreateBucket`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_CreateBucket.html)

+- [`s3:PutObject`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_PutObject.html)
