'Trying to password protect my static website hosted on S3
I have a cloudfront distributing which is linked to my S3 bucket on which my website is hosted.I wanted to password protect my website so I created a lambda function with authorization code and attached it to my cloud front distribution. Now When I open my website I get prompted to type user and password but when I type user and password I get again prompted to type the user and password and I am not able to access my website. This is very strange. This is the link to the tutorial which I followed

Anyone has any idea what could be the cause of this? Any help would be appreciated.

The only way to get this done is to put CloudFront on top of your S3 bucket and use Lambda@Edge to authorise requests.
