Configuring a Pre-signed URL
You can configure a pre-signed URL that enables an object to be accessible through the Internet. Any user to whom you send the pre-signed URL can access the object for the time you specify.
Using a pre-signed URL, the user you send the URL to does not need any permission or authentication to download your object. |
You can manage your object storage resources using s3cmd commands. For more information, see s3cmd. |
