Creating a Preauthenticated Request for a Specific Object

On Compute Cloud@Customer, you can create a preauthenticated request for a specific object in a bucket using the CLI and API.

Important

Immediately after creating the request, copy the access-uri to durable storage.

The unique access-uri provided by the system is the only way to construct a URL that a user can use to access the bucket or object specified as the request target.

The access-uri is displayed only at the time of creation and can't be retrieved later.

To construct a URL from the unique access-uri, see Constructing the Preauthenticated Request URL.

Note

Listing objects in a bucket is denied by default. If the --access-type is AnyObjectRead or AnyObjectReadWrite, you can specify the optional --bucket-listing-action ListObjects parameter when creating the preauthenticated request that lets users list the objects in the bucket.
