python - Move files between two AWS S3 buckets using boto3

Question

I have to move files between one bucket to another with Python Boto API. (I need it to "Cut" the file from the first Bucket and "Paste" it in the second one). What is the best way to do that?

** Note: Is that matter if I have two different ACCESS KEYS and SECRET KEYS?

If you are using boto3 (the newer boto version) this is quite simple

import boto3
s3 = boto3.resource('s3')
copy_source = {
    'Bucket': 'mybucket',
    'Key': 'mykey'
}
s3.meta.client.copy(copy_source, 'otherbucket', 'otherkey')
