Reading data from S3 using Lambda

Answer 1

You can use bucket.objects.all() to get a list of the all objects in the bucket (you also have alternative methods like filter, page_sizeand limit depending on your need)

These methods return an iterator with S3.ObjectSummary objects in it, from there you can use the method object.get to retrieve the file.
