# Use `UploadPartCopy` with an AWS SDK
<a name="s3-directory-buckets_example_s3-directory-buckets_UploadPartCopy_section"></a>

The following code example shows how to use `UploadPartCopy`.

------
#### [ Java ]

**SDK for Java 2.x**  
 There's more on GitHub. Find the complete example and learn how to set up and run in the [AWS Code Examples Repository](https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples/tree/main/javav2/example_code/s3/src/main/java/com/example/s3/directorybucket#code-examples). 
Create copy parts based on source object size and copy over individual parts to a directory bucket.
