Certbot can obtain and install HTTPS/TLS/SSL certificates.  By default,
it will attempt to use a webserver both for obtaining and installing the
certificate.
certbot: error: unrecognized arguments: --certbot-s3front:auth-s3-bucket XXX --certbot-s3front:auth-s3-region us-east-1 --certbot-s3front:installer-cf-distribution-id XXX

Any ideas?

@jetoneza I had the same problem, turned out I didn't actually have the plugin installed.

To check if you have the plugin installed, run certbot plugins, output should include:

* certbot-s3front:auth
Description: S3/CloudFront Authenticator
Interfaces: IAuthenticator, IPlugin
Entry point: auth = certbot_s3front.authenticator:Authenticator

* certbot-s3front:installer
Description: S3/CloudFront Installer
Interfaces: IInstaller, IPlugin
Entry point: installer = certbot_s3front.installer:Installer

@dirkcuys We switched to AWS Certificate Manager but we will still try this. Thanks!

I also have this issue. Probably because I need to run certbot as sudo in ubuntu 16.04, and I can't install this plugin as sudo. so "sudo certbot plugins" does not list the plugin

[dirkcuys]

You can also install certbot and the plugin in a virtual invironment, then just run the commands with the absolute path eg. /opt/venv/bin/pip install certbot-s3front and /opt/venv/bin/certbot ...

I am also getting this error. The plugins are installed. Anyone fix this?
