Introduction

Simple Storage Service (S3) is a service on Amazon Web Services (AWS) that provides a robust solution for storing, organizing, and accessing files in the cloud. With S3, you can create scalable storage buckets, upload files, and manage access effortlessly. One of the standout features of AWS S3 is the ability to generate presigned URLs, which allow temporary and secure access to files without exposing your bucket or file permissions.

Sign in to your account with your credentials.

Step 1: Creating and Configuring S3 Bucket

• After you're logged in, search S3 and select the highlighted option.
  
  




• Give the bucket a globally unique name e.g., tourism-s3. (You should go over the bucket naming rules.)




• You can change the region from the top right corner.
  
  




• Let's add a tag for cost management. (Here Name is the Key and tourism is the Value.)




• For encryption and other settings we leave as default.




• Click the Create bucket button.
  
  

Step 2: Creating Folders

• Click Create folder and let's create folders to store pictures, tables, & videos.
  
  




• Create a folder for tables and videos using the same steps.
  
  




• We successfully created folders for different purposes.
  
  




• Click Add files and select an image.
  
  
  
  




• Click Add files and select a table file.
  
  
  
  




• Set the Number of minutes or hours you want the presigned URL to last for. Setting ours to 30 minutes.




• Click Create presigned URL.
  
  




• Paste the URL in a browser to test it works.
  
  




• Just like the image, set the Number of minutes or hours you want the presigned URL to last for. Setting it to 30 minutes here as well.




• Click Create presigned URL.
  
  




• Paste the URL in a browser to test it works (it should download the table file we uploaded).
