Understanding Object Storage object operations

Reviewed on 04 July 2024Published on 13 September 2018

DeleteObject

This operation allows you to remove the null version (if available) of an object and inserts a delete marker, which becomes the latest version of the object.

If there is no null version, no object is removed.

Note

If the operation is successful, no output will be returned.

Sample request

DELETE /file.txt HTTP/1.1
Host: bucket.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
x-amz-content-sha256: e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
x-amz-date: 20190411T080553Z
Authorization: authorization string

CLI command

aws s3api delete-object --bucket BucketName --key ObjectName
Note

If bucket versioning is enabled, the output will contain the version ID of the delete marker.

DeleteObjects

This operation allows you to delete multiple objects in a single request (up to 1,000).

Sample request

POST /?delete HTTP/1.1
Host: bucket.s3.fr-par.scw.cloud
Content-md5: IDCi4XsSBVpFGHtK7bEVag==
x-amz-date: 20220406T122013Z
Authorization: authorization string
<Delete xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
<Object>
<Key>object1.jpg</Key>
<VersionId>1554970190808057</VersionId>
</Object>
<Object>
<Key>object2.jpg</Key>
</Object>
</Delete>

Sample response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
x-amz-id-2: tx4b4bd55643874b48b1e87-00624d857d

This operation returns the tag set of the specified object.

Sample request

GET /Sample-object?tagging HTTP/1.1
Host: bucket.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2019 12:00:00 GMT
Authorization: authorization string

Sample response

</Tagging>

HeadObject

The HEAD operation retrieves metadata from an object without returning the object itself. This operation is useful if you’re only interested in an object’s metadata. To use HEAD, you must have READ access to the object.

Sample request

HEAD /myfile.txt HTTP/1.1
Host: bucket.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
x-amz-content-sha256: e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855

CLI command

aws s3api head-object --bucket BucketName --key ObjectName

CreateMultipartUpload

Multipart uploads allow you to upload a single object as a set of parts. Each part is a contiguous portion of the object’s data. You can upload these object parts independently and in any order. If transmission of any part fails, you can retransmit that part without affecting other parts. After all parts of your object are uploaded, Scaleway Object Storage assembles these parts and creates the object.

Tip

Check out our multipart uploads documentation page for more information.

Sample request

This operation initiates a multipart upload for the Sample-object object.

POST /Sample-object?uploads HTTP/1.1
Host: bucketname.s3.scw.cloud

CLI command

aws s3api create-multipart-upload --bucket my-bucket --key 'multipart/01'

OPTIONS object

The OPTIONS operation allows a browser to send a preflight request to Object Storage to determine if the actual request is supported with the specific origin, HTTP method and headers.

When a browser sends this request, Object Storage evaluates the rules that are defined in the CORS configuration.

Sample request

OPTIONS /Sampleobject HTTP/1.1
Host: bucketname.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud
Origin: http://www.Sample.com
Access-Control-Request-Method: PUT

Sample response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2019 11:38:17 GMT
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://www.Sample.com
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: PUT
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: x-amz-request-id

POST object

This operation allows you to add an object to a specified bucket using HTML forms. POST is an alternate form of PUT that enables browser-based uploads as a way of putting objects in buckets.

Note

If you want to learn more about this request, check out the POST Object documentation page.

Sample request

POST /file.txt HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 4
Host: bucket.s3.nl-ams.scw.cloud

Connection: close

CLI command

aws s3api put-object --bucket BucketName --key dir-1/ObjectName --body ObjectName
Note

To define the storage class of the object directly upon creation, use the --storage-class <class> option with awscli or add the x-amz-storage-class: <class> header when using the S3 API. You can specify one of the following classes: STANDARD, ONEZONE_IA, GLACIER. Example: x-amz-storage-class: ONEZONE_IA.

If no class is specified, the object is created as STANDARD by default.

PutObjectAcl

This operation allows you to use the ACL subresource to set the access control list (ACL) permissions for an object that already exists in a bucket. The --acl subcommand possible values are:

  • private
  • public-read
  • public-read-write
  • authenticated-read
  • bucket-owner-read
  • bucket-owner-full-control

Sample request

PUT /demo.jpg?acl HTTP/1.1
