S3 API Reference
This section contains the Amazon S3 API Reference documentation, which includes actions (operations) and data types.
The S3 API reference groups each of its Actions and Data Types into three sets: Amazon S3, Amazon S3 Control, and Amazon S3 on Outposts. There is no functional distinction between the three sets. If you don't find an API operation or data type that you're looking for in one set, check one of the other sets.
