AWS S3 bucket lifecycle policy not transitioning objects as expected under certain conditions

AWS S3 lifecycle-policy JSON

I'm having trouble with the lifecycle policy on my AWS S3 bucket. I set up a policy to transition objects to Glacier after 30 days, but it seems like only some objects are transitioning while others remain in Standard storage despite meeting the criteria. The lifecycle policy I configured looks like this: ```json { "Rules": [ { "ID": "TransitionToGlacier", "Status": "Enabled", "Filter": { "Prefix": "" }, "Transitions": [ { "Days": 30, "StorageClass": "GLACIER" } ] } ] } ``` I've confirmed that the objects that aren't transitioning are all older than 30 days and have the correct prefix. However, I noticed that some of them have been uploaded with different storage classes (e.g., Intelligent-Tiering). I also checked the bucket's region, and everything appears to be configured correctly. I even tried deleting some of the problematic objects and re-uploading them, but they still don't transition as expected. Could the storage class of the objects affect the lifecycle transitions, or is there something else I might be missing? Any help or insight into this would be greatly appreciated!
