Examples

Generating and Using Pre-signed URLs for Download

This example generates the pre-signed URL for downloading the file books.csv on the stage my-stage:

PRESIGN @my_stage/books.csv
+--------+---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| method | headers | url                                                                             |
+--------+---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GET    | {}      | https://example.s3.amazonaws.com/books.csv?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&... |
+--------+---------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

This example functions in the same way as the preceding one:

PRESIGN DOWNLOAD @my_stage/books.csv

To download the file with the pre-signed URL and save it as books.csv, execute the following command:

curl <presigned-url> -o books.csv  

This example generates the pre-signed URL that expires in 7,200 seconds (2 hours):

PRESIGN @my_stage/books.csv EXPIRE = 7200

Generating and Using Pre-signed URLs for Upload

This example generates the pre-signed URL for uploading a file as books.csv to the stage my_stage:

PRESIGN UPLOAD @my_stage/books.csv

To upload the file books.csv with the pre-signed URL, execute the following command:

curl -X PUT -T books.csv <presigned-url>
