@Felipe Micheletto hi. Thanks for your question.

We need more information. Please, provide us your config details, and a screenshot of your repository variables (values should be hidden).

Alternative way to is to configure some test script in pipeline to check your aws configuration:

script:
  - curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64-2.2.9.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip" && unzip awscliv2.zip
  - echo 'c778f4cc55877833679fdd4ae9c94c07d0ac3794d0193da3f18cb14713af615f awscliv2.zip' | sha256sum -c - && ./aws/install
  - aws configure list

 according to this guide.

Regards, Igor

The S3 deploy steps works fine, and use the same variables as the cloudfront

[Igor Stoyanov]

@Felipe Micheletto  just for tests. Set up in cloudfront pipe config aws region like in your s3 pipe config.

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: "us-east-1"

[Igor Stoyanov]

Also try to run cloudfront via aws cli from your local machine (without using pipe, with using the same creds) to understand where the problem exactly is.

[Felipe Micheletto]

i alredy tried setting the egion like the s3, but dont work, i will try via cli

[Felipe Micheletto]

@Igor Stoyanov via cli works, i used the same credentials from the pipeline

[Igor Stoyanov]

@Felipe Micheletto Try to delete/add_again DISTRIBUTION_ID in the repository variables. Check in the logs this line:

```Distibution URL: https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/home?region={region}#distribution-settings:{distribution_id}``` -- is this the correct link?

If this will not help, try to call cli command inside pipeline without using pipe. 
How to install aws cli in pipeline:

script:
  - curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64-2.2.9.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip" && unzip awscliv2.zip
  - echo 'c778f4cc55877833679fdd4ae9c94c07d0ac3794d0193da3f18cb14713af615f awscliv2.zip' | sha256sum -c - && ./aws/install
  - aws <run your command>

Also please provide full log output (hide secret data) with DEBUG variable when using pipe to help us understand where is the problem

I Found my problem, i was using deployment variables were is not set to use, i added my variables as repository variables and everything works now! Thanks @Igor Stoyanov
